Thread: Over polishing?

I messed up twice this week.

I had a SR that I wanted to remove a stain from. So I barely touched it with almost smooth sandpaper. Got rid of the stain but not without leaving the area underneath slightly brighter/shiner than the rest of the blade.

Also on a DE one day later got a 2nd hand great buy but wasn't in great shape. Used Autosol and it worked wonders cleaning it. But on the top plate, a small streak also was slightly shiner than the rest. Maybe I over scrubbed it?

Do you suppose with use and time the colors will even out again?
