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? |

We went over this with my pickle trans case. I bought a case of Gibbs Product and tried to sand my polish my case a little. It removed the 60 grit like sand pickle from the case in a small area that I tested and then I sprayed the Gibbs over it. That was 4 months ago. It still looks very good. There clams that the product will keep the metal from tarnishing I believe works, but some like Pat would need to spray it on every so often to keep it covered. Sorry no pictures as I am at home.
They do show Mag. wheels polished then sprayed with the stuff. I am going to spend the time finishing the case so why not spray the stuff on to try and keep the look good for some time. Bob |
