the back does not shine as well as the front. but i think it was the time i spent with the super fine steel wool before i used the mothers. a high speed dremel with a buffing wheel also would help greatly. the main key frogger is to get the small scratches out will the steel wool. i went from fine to super fine and it is labor intensive but worth the results.

hey 03ninja i would seriously consider the frame before i did it. you will have to take a bunch of parts off and it will probably take about 8-10 hours to polish alone. plus the up keep would be more than i would want to deal with.
