Thread: Tired of easy polishing

Hand sanding works the best and is the slowest safest method.
I know the fingers and hand gets tired....... Use some "helper tools" to ease the strain on your hand and fingers.
Sometimes the dremel works good....... BUT....you need to be careful when using it!
Same goes for buffer wheels...... High speeds = high heat....
Lots of posts on all of these methods.

Meguiar's makes a metal polish in a heavy and medium cut. I have not used it much, but it does seem to work. Just not quite as they say.

It can be done, but a dedicated buffer is probably the safer, with lots of clearance, that you can hold the razor with both hands and it gives you a good view or the buffing surface while buffing.

It is still dangerous but all the other caveats apply. I still do both. Though lately, I do more hand sanding and use the buffer with 600 and greased compounds to finish.

The best advice, is live with some defects and buy better razors.

Yes I thought to use a driller too but as it's said here, to handle the driller and the blade is quite hard to do at the same time.

Actually I just want to start with quicker way and planning to have a buffer machine and to convert it with using with cloath wheels.
