Seeing you polishing bits makes me guilty as my old Strada could do with some of the same.

Cheers bud, it's pretty easy you can grab some microfibre buffing wheels for your drill off Amazon, then i went first with some Meguiars NXT and finished with some Mothers Mag and Aluminium.

Annoyingly i have been bitting and batting at the bike as i was working over Christmas.

I've whipped off the front and rear wheels as the brakes were stuck on, was a bit of a farse as the brake shaft was seized in the housing.

So front is stripped, cleaned, lubed, rebuilt ready go in. Rear is next, its been interesting learning as i go especially the felt seal in the rear hub.

I have starting polishing the wheels before i put the drums back in, i am very tempted to fully strip them down as the wire nuts are rusty and its taking a long time to get in there and polish round.

Cheers
