    Don't blame you for not going overboard with the polishing. Just enough it shines, that's the ticket 😎👍

    Cattle guard looks 👀 great 👍 on “Ol Red”, Ezra. You’ve done a lot of work to that classic 359 Peterbilt but it all pays off in the long run. Hope you’re doing well sir. See ya on the next one

    I saw on Jay Leno a product that he promoted and had the owner on his channel. He said he doesn’t endorse most things he likes but this is great. “ Quick Glo “ all natural and made in the USA. Clean, polish, and put a coat to keep it shiny. Even chips that rust. Removes rush and seal it up.

    Приветствую вас. Смотрю вас из России. На русском Ютубе не было видео по ремонту peterbilt и наткнулся на вас. Понимаю вас без перевода, очень хорошо все показываете по ремонту тягача. И узнал о некоторых новых инструментов для ремонта тягача . Недавно стал обладателем peterbilt 387, но в целом особых различий нет , поэтому беру информацию с вашего канала

    I have found a really good clear coat for polished aluminum. The product I use is rated for high temperatures as well. The product I use is applied with an hvlp paint gun. I mirror polished the crankcase on my triumph 750 engine and clear coated it. 10 years later, it looks just as good as the day I coated it.

    • @Ezrider359

      I generally clean them with a degreaser after polishing to remove all the left over residue. I then wiped them with lacquer thinner because that's what shark hide recommends

      A wool hand pad with corn starch pulls so much black residue from the fine scratches.
      I am going to try my hand at the next level of polishing, the sanding, cutting and buffing, if I fail then the tanks are getting painted. 😂

      Yea. My 1986 359. I use corn starch but I did my rims 4 years ago. I had them done by a local guy. Then clear coated 3 coats clear. Rims still look great. And I only do my nose and I have aluminum bumper. I did. In clear coat. Mistake on chips. So I got a bumper coming in. Will install and redo my aluminum bumper. And have it chrome
