    Never heard of him but £100 is a very good price!

    From that name I guess it's a Polish dude just looking to make an honest day's wages - afterall how long would it take him to earn £100 at minimum wage??

    Gathered he was Polish or something like that from the dodgy spelling/grammar alone
    Could be totally legit and do an excellent job like but I'd definitely want to see other examples of his work in the flesh at that price, you wouldn't want to hand out £100 and get a **** job done

    Polishing alloys

    hello everyone. I see that I am the subject so please do the normal treatment. If you have any questions just write.to what I am doing this is not easy. costs are not relevant to my work. as for now, all of my work are happy and I did not have phrases, pictures will never reflect reality. so I have at home a few sets of wheels which are my own and I can show you.

    I can vouch for Michael. Did a great job on an inlet manifold and some other bits for me which I left with him. It was worth £1500 so I know what you mean about leaving stuff off. A few other people I told used him and were very happy too (y)

    Manifold I needed done got Zircotec Ceramic coated instead as I reckoned it would be easier kept. A mate is looking his rocker cover done but needs to wait for a suitable time to park the car up while its off getting polished. Keep you informed :D

    information for all. polishing of one wheel is about 6 hours in very good condition wheels. if the wheel is destroyed it takes a lot more. So subtracting the cost of purchase of material needed for the job earning about 3 pounds per hour, and it is really not easy. if anyone wants to do it yourself can help you because there is nothing to hide. easy to find everything on the Internet

    Also, are these wheels sealed with any lacquer to prevent corrosion?
