Just wondering if anybody's ever gotten the pedal bar on their Encore up to a nice shine and what kind of work/tools that would entail. I've got an orbital hand polisher. Seems like something that might make a nice weekend project.

I'll never forget Fred Justice's answer to the best way to buff. "Let some one else do it".

I'm not sure if a hand orbital polisher will do the job and may even make it look worse. I would suggest taking it to a chrome or metal plating shop and have them polish it on a large industrial buffer, like Fred says, "have someone else do it!"

Good luck,

Marty
