Dont expect the shine to last forever it will oxidize so if you want to keep the shine lasting you will need to clear coat your frame(and not walmart spray can clear).</description><pubDate>Sun, 06 Jan 2008 09:09:06 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Mains 835</dc:creator></item><item><title>RE: Polishing frame cr 250</title><link>http://mainedirtbikes.com/newforums/Topic5912-8-1.aspx</link><description>any brand of mag/aluminum wheel polish. read instructions and do what they say. don't bother doing the "lower" section of the frame which is rough, because it doesn't polish unless you sand it down to smooth like the upper section, and it's 199134 hours of work and it's not worth it.</description><pubDate>Wed, 21 Nov 2007 10:40:05 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>kawi152</dc:creator></item><item><title>RE: Polishing frame cr 250</title><link>http://mainedirtbikes.com/newforums/Topic5912-8-1.aspx</link><description>hey! my bro uses "Mothers scrub or something like that</description><pubDate>Mon, 19 Nov 2007 15:11:37 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>#27rider85</dc:creator></item><item><title>RE: Polishing frame cr 250</title><link>http://mainedirtbikes.com/newforums/Topic5912-8-1.aspx</link><description>[quote][b]cr250r2stroke (11/19/2007)[/b][hr]Hey there i have a 2002 cr 250 and am looking to polish the frame , just wondering if anyone has done it and know where i should start or and any details on how to do it would be awsome..tks :D[/quote]&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;ive heard people say they use 600 grit "wet" sand paper. and it takes a while but they really shine</description><pubDate>Mon, 19 Nov 2007 11:39:44 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>RM25042</dc:creator></item><item><title>Polishing frame cr 250</title><link>http://mainedirtbikes.com/newforums/Topic5912-8-1.aspx</link><description>Hey there i have a 2002 cr 250 and am looking to polish the frame , just wondering if anyone has done it and know where i should start or and any details on how to do it would be awsome..tks :D</description><pubDate>Mon, 19 Nov 2007 10:12:11 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>cr250r2stroke</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
