As the thread states, I'm looking for someone to power polish, etc. (all that other good stuff that gets out scratches and gives a brilliant shine!) my gsx-r.

If you know of someone, or if you can do it - please send me a PM!

It would also be great if you can get rid of this gooey residue from removed decals.

Thanks in advance.

Be careful that you get an experienced person!

Plastic fairings on those bikes can overheat and burn during a polish job if the detailier doesn't have an experienced hand.

Almost anyone that can power polish a car can power polish a bike. Some scratches that are deep won't come out, changes are if it catches your finger nail it is too deep to remove.

Some areas of the bike are just too tight to use a polisher, so detailing a bike involves a decent amount of hand polishing as well.

I dunno, A fully plastic motorbike is a bit more in depth than a simple car job if you ask me.

I would tackle the plastic parts with a wool pad to keep heat down, then follow up with a foam pad so i don't need to do as much work with the foam.

I sent you a PM, hit me back if you're interested.
