If you were my friend I'd tell you "Looks great! You need to stop smoking."

Wanna be my friend?

Hi! I'm a big CWC Springer Fan but I have never seen one polished and left bare - that would be a treat. I like your approach - clean every nut and bolt! Great Job! Robert

Thanks man,
My original idea for a slick paintjob got shot down when I realized how bad the frame was.Decided to go bare metal but I wanted to find a way I havent seen before so I came up with a way to (rotary abrasive polish) it,for lack of a better term and its my sneaky way of hiding I am using a common tool LOL.
