Nice job, Aloha  :tu:

For those who aren't in possession of a rotary or polishing tools, there's a way to achieve the look completely by hand using good old elbow grease method with sandpapers of various grits and a polishing cloth.

I own Dremel but this time wanted to go it manual, slow way. Smaller tools at the bottom of the handle were polished too, for more striking polish effect.

Steps explained in the post below.

Thanks for posting this Babs.

Pretty sure I am just going to make Aloha polish all my tools though.

Did some plier polishing as well.  It really needed a lot of sanding but I really didn't want to go all out so I used 1000 grit then stropped with green compound.  Looks decent. 

My OG Supertool was close by so onto the strop it went.   

Looking good brother.  :tu:

Whatever gives you kicks, man. Just make sure you lock the door first.  ;)
