Hi Guys,

Just a quickie is it possible to get scratches out of Alli Spinners ? if so can someone explain how and what to use, i slipped with my electric starter again today leaving a nice scratch on the spinner, maybe im too fusy and should just fly....... but just wanted to know if i can get it out using anything...........

Thx

If it was me,i would paint that sucker LIME GREEN and GLOWS .
*but that's a personal thing.*

hey there dragon, I didn't have that problem, but I did polish my exhaust tip on my alpha trainer. What I did was use some 400 grit sandpaper to get the factory finish off, then I used 600 grit, 800 grit, 1200 grit, and finally 2000 grit. This will make it look good but to make it shine really good, get some sort of aluminum polish like, mothers wheel polish or in my case, I used never dull. (IMO this works waaaaay better) You can find it at wal-mart or a local auto parts store. Sorry I don't have any pics, I need to find a way to get some hu? But anyways, good luck, and show some pics when ya git done!!!!

BTW, the high numbered grit sandpaper can be found an an auto body shop. Since your spinner is not all that bad, you might want to start out with 800 or 1200. I also know that a brand new spinner may be cheaper, but then again, you will have a little experience with polishing aluminum.

I have also heard of using fine grit paper as well as abrasive polish. This will make it look like chrome

000 and 0000 steel wool used in conjunction with an automotive polishing compound can also work wonders...
