2007 Harley Springer

I was contacted by this client to clean up his Harley. He wanted to have all of the chrome and metal polished. I did a full wash and sealed all painted surfaces with Meg #21. All of the chrome and other metals were polished using Mother Mag and Aluminum Polish and some steel wool and several microfiber towels.
Not many before pictures as I was having difficulty capturing defects in the chrome using my point and shoot camera.
Here are some pictures:

From what I can tell by the pics, good job man! What grade was your steel wool if you don't mind me asking?

LOL.


Anyway, nice job sprucing up the Hog! I love Springers...just love that old tech front end with all the chrome. The wheels are great and all that chrome looks great offset against the dark colour. He must have been delighted to see it.

Great job on the Bike!!!! One thing to remember about Harley's is that they have a soft paint and you have to take care in the products and methods you use. Thanks for
posting the pic using the steel wool, I have a spot on my bike just like that and I wouldn't have gone that aggressive unless I had seen it done :props:! The bike turned out really great and while looking at the pics I let out a woooohooo!!! Great Job!!!
