OSH ...aluminum needs polishing. HELP!!

http://www.ionaircraft.com/Toucan.jpg The GREEN (aluminum) parts need polishing. What's a good 1-2-3-4-5.... step process for polishing up the aluminum wings - for OSH? 1. Time 2. Nuvite - it comes in several 'grades' - start with the coarse grades to get the tarnish off, then finish off with the finest grade. We used to get a perfect mirror finish on our old C140 with this. 3. Time 4. Yet more time To do a proper polishing job on our C140 (which was only partly polished - lower fuselage, tail and flaps - the rest was painted) would take around 10 hours. Just for this very small plane. And it was already pretty shiny when we started. -- Yes, the Reply-To email address is valid. Oolite-Linux: an Elite tribute: http://oolite-linux.berlios.de
