I think I remember seeing "fingernail buffer" somewhere, but haven't found that post again. . If the answer is "yes" will it work on the unfinished button too?
Yes, I understand you use a nail buffer. The button I believe, Imeo forgot to sand them before they were sent so very fine sandpaper should do the trick on that.

I have just ordered that Crash... looks good !

I used the multi sided nail buffer that you get from Tesco or any supermarket, but do NOT use the rough parts.. just the polishing parts. They work very well indeed.

I've been using some polish I nicked from work on my GG T seems to work great, would be kinda weird if I had a nail buffer around here :p

I almost feel I should hand over my pervert badge, since I haven't been off to Tesco to get my nail buffer..

Crash's device at Deal Extreme is styled like an obscure power tool... very butch, if you ask me...


Seeing the result Truelove has in his video - isn't polishing preferable to buffing?

I prefer to use polish, don't wana mess up the engraving by accident

No not nail polish , we have a product in the UK called 'Brasso' it is a wadding that is used to polish up various metals.

You need to buff away the ridges on the body, this is done by using the high number buffer on a nail buffer... its also referred to as polishing..

So its the same thing.

Its like when a car has a re-spray, its sanded down between coats, all I have done is use the very fine type of sanding that a nail buffer supplies.
