120 cut wheel

220/400/600/800/1000 then 1500 grit sandpaper

Once smooth, polish with black then red and finally white jewlers polish inserted on a buffing pad in your drill. Comes out like chrome.

Thx for the compliment. I only have about 10 hrs total into all of the polishing.

Who's doing the work on the seats?? I want to do something with mine, as they are getting to look like they are 16 years old....

Those look pretty nice, but mine are faux leather so might be harder to deal with.

I put them on, I have a one girl shop down in FL she charges $500 plus shipping and that includes all the labor and any materal you want (the leather is leatherette which looks like leather but isn't) cloth or leather, multi color or standard....all the same cost. Takes about 3 hrs total to install. I am happy to show you how to install if you ever get near the Cape.
