What have people you done to their fan housing to make it look good?
Can you put engine paint on it? I think that I have seen it power coated? If it’s polished how do you do it and how long does it last? Are there other options? |

Ya I know , This thread is worthless w/out pics (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) but I used a Mouse sander and dremel in finer and finer grit cause I was waiting for parts from machine shop and got bored. Came out great, better than the top of the crankcase even. Oxidation is the only flaw in this, as Pat said a few weeks and it looks old again. I know there has to be something out there for keeping polished Mg polished but I haven't been around alot lately to play.
If anyone knows what software to use to pull pics from a Motorola s7vr (Sliver(sp)) phone via USB I can post a bunch of pics. It will polish but keeping it that way via clearcoat or polish/wax is the challenge. With polished case and shroud though it sure looks nice. |
