kiel-theshee use' s EASTWOOD .. DIAMOND CLEAR. cody- kaosbanshee44 uses it on his polished parts as well.

Yeah i used it on a few polished parts seems to keep it polished pretty good i really wanted to use it for my cases but haven't touched em' up after the build yet.

Zoops also has a very good product, I've used it on some big block chevy intakes I polished and it holds up extremely well!

are these just clear coats for polished parts do the clears hold up well with washing?? i have 5 banshee's and between all the maintenance to keep them going most time i just cannot spend 3 weeks re polishing everything over and over and over..

Basically yes Cam, I don't know much about the eastwood sealer, I know a few that have used it, but, have gotten rid of their stuff before we knew how well it held up, the Zoops sealer works great, chemical resistant and it hasn't yellowed on the intakes I have done.

I used the eastwood on a couple parts i'll get a true test of it once i spray my cases down with it and see how it holds up. I have some harsh conditions down here in texas to one day it's cold and the next it's hot and you have hellacous condensate on the concrete floor in your shop and all over your billet parts. It's a pain in the arse.

true cody... ive about busted my azz acouple of times in my garage... like somebody sprayed the floor down. all my alky jugs are in trash bags up on the work bench..

i heard zoops works good at first but yellows and is hard to strip off

I did the intakes about 5 years ago, haven't yellowed yet, not saying they couldn't, just haven't done it yet

There's no shine like Mothers

Does that Billet Polish work any better than regular mother's alum. polish? $17.44 shippped from Ebay for a 4oz. can. Is it work the money???

 

[bigboybanshee]

Wow, I don't remember ever paying that much for it, I buy it from Autozone. I "think" it's around 7-8 bucks a can.

To me, it does work a little better but it's not a night and day difference. It seems to give the metal a little more luster, and it lasts for a good while. Maybe your question would be a good reason for me to do a comparison on the next piece I polish

 

[dylan]

Well let us know how that works out..and yeah I'll be going to AutoZone instead of ordering online lol

 

[bigboybanshee]

No problem. I've got a few things to polish this week, and I'll take one of the parts and do half with original mothers, and the other half with the billet, then post pics...so you may want to wait before you go buy anything. We may learn something after this experiment

 

[dylan]

yeah i'll wait for sure..i still got plenty time. my motors only halfway polished and havent even tore it apart yet.
