To POLISH or not to POLISH

[TexsyBeast]

I love the stainless steel finish but a mirror or polished finish is even more better!

thoughts?

My vehicle having the maintenance that matches my bathroom mirror is a no go, you seem motivated though! GL!

Not for me, but my vote is you go for it. The flexibility of the CT is in a class of its own.

If you think its better then go for it!

I also want a mirror look but I'm also indecisive haha. Been thinking of doing a mirror wrap and going that route. That way I can go back to stainless or any other color down the line. Only downside is that mirror wraps seem to be pretty pricey especially if I want it ppf

@RealWheelsEV is a vendor here. They made my side steps.

That is the brand side step I have also. Stainless steel and made in USA.

Huh?

If you give the metal a mirror polish it's even easier to go back to the factory finish! The mirror finish is created by removing all the fine scratches that give the truck it's matte sheen. Want it back? Just sand it again with a coarser grit!

I'm not going to a mirror polish because I get it muddy and bushwack a lot. The factory finish hides the fine scratches unless the angle of the light is just right to see them. A mirror finish would make them stand out and I would be constantly polishing it back to a mirror finish.

True, true! Altel wants $6k to wrap it.... I can get the Polish for $3k...but then you would have the ability to revert back to the original....decisions, decision!

Wrap it yourself. It’s very doable and you’ll have an endorphin dump.
