Bad. Ass. How could something designed to work on fighter jets not work on the also-but-not-quite-as manly straight razor?

Hi rgdominguez, could you have a look at this Aussie site please. http://www.armsmodelit.com.au/ArmsSandPolish.htm#mmpad
Is this the same as what you used?
Did you use the pad kit or sheet kit?
If you used sheets, did you soak in soapy water as this site states.
Have you tried the Micro-mesh polish???
I could use this stuff everywhere Lordy, I've got at least 100 questions about this stuff.
Can you ruin an item?

PS I have a few pipes too, I never even thought of doing anything to their surface.....

I am replying to simply add this thread to my list for quick reference. I just purchases some MM and cannot wait to try them out!

I used to use my micro mesh to polish paint on model cars to mirror shine (years ago and I still use the same set, it lasts forever). Now I found that it works wonders on both metal and especially getting scales up to a mirror polish. I have nothing but good things to say about the stuff.

Hi Guys,
I thought this link might be useful.

The foam backed kits are also available at Carba-Tec for the Aussie people.
I'm going to try using it with Autosol on blades to see how it goes.

I just picked up a set of 9 micromesh pads at Lee Valley. They are square, and have a padded center.
