Nice job, does it remove stains in the aluminum too ? Oh hemi31 would like his shitty camera back

[RT6SPD 6]

might need to sand with 320 grit & WD40. but try the above first

You should be able to tell after the first step.

Um... not a shitty camera.... a shitty old Iphone4

camera lens is scratched up but it plays tunes great. And phone and internet work well.

I like the old School 70's stance. we used to have to install Shackles to get this look back then.
