This time we are going to polish an aluminum enclosure to make it more aesthetically pleasing. I've not tried this before so I wasn't sure how it would turn out.

Nice job on the cleanup! You have a lot more patience than I do 🤣

I made an actual production pedal that turned out much shinier. Then I engraved it for a customer.

Thanks so much for taking the time to show this.... Im just going down this rabbit hole!. ;)

[@HomespunEffects]

Thanks for watching. The polished surface makes for a great background for etching or engraving.
