Metal Polishing Loughborough

Metal polishing for Loughborough customers

Loughborough is about 155 miles from our workshop near Weston-super-Mare, so items reach us by insured courier and go back the same way once they have been inspected and wrapped.

Stainless steel exhausts are slow, hard work to polish, which is exactly why they are worth having done properly. Downpipes, silencers and end cans on motorcycles come up to a mirror finish given the time. Heat discolouration can usually be polished out, but pitting or damage from the inside of a pipe will not polish away.

For more on how we polish each metal, and when polishing is better than plating, see our metal polishing page.

We specialise in restoring all types of classic/vintage car parts, motorcycle parts, marine parts, BMX/Raleigh Chopper parts, household items and bespoke items. We can also take on industrial polishing work.

Polishing is a critical part of the electroplating service which is carried out by experienced polishers using industrial machines before plating begins.

All marks, blemishes and imperfections need to be removed at this stage, but as we are working in most cases with second hand metal this is not always possible and sometimes it is inevitable that pits may remain in restoration items after plating.

Die cast and aluminium in particular can contain a certain amount of porosity therefore an initial assessment will be made upon receipt, so you the customer are fully aware of the overall finish that we will be able to achieve.

Whilst metal polishing services are part of the electroplating process, we are happy to offer this as a stand alone service. We can meet your individual requests by polishing all types of metal to a mirror or satin finish. We provide a high quality finish on Aluminium or Stainless Steel items.
