JDM Polish!

 

Pics? I think I know what you're talking about, but might help to see just how bad.

Like this?

Blued titanium


As mentioned, some people pay for that look

Not sure the stock exhaust is SST; it is most likely mild steel.

 

Haha I wish it was blued titanium. I have a nameless.

 

ahhh yes, Classic. Ive been it with it a couple times

 

Right now we are just blindly guessing the conditions you are trying to assess from the original given description.

A picture say a thousand words. Maybe you can upload a clear pic, or several pictures with different light angles to properly depict the problem you are trying to correct so we can get the best idea of the condition.


How many passes did you do with the Mothers mag polish? What was the material you applied it with? And did you do it by hand or machine? If by hand, what type of motion? If my machine, what type of speed?

 

Heres an example. This was a Fujitsubo back box I restored that had seen many years of Japanese environmental conditions. This was very withered and required a multi-step restoration process. Everything from chemical detox to several stages of polishing and final polishing, and finishing up with a metal surface sealant.

I am sure yours is no where near as bad. Poor steel quality can also play a factor in the way the metal reacts to extreme temperature variances and its aging behavior.
