[QUOTE="warrior45, post: 1027433, member: 4598"] Nanoteck9, I had the same questions when I saw a pic of Martin Olexey's blade. He is a maker in Texas and I bought my first few customs from him. Great guy. I picked his brain on his technique. He told me all I need is Cratex rods. Do a google and they will pop up. Its basically a rubber material with abrasives added. You chuck the Cratex in your drill press, rotary tool, hand drill...whatever you have and try and follow a pattern overlapping each circle. Practice on some scrap first though....Ask me how I know.....lol Martin also told me wire brush wheels can work too by dipping them in buffing compound and doing the same process. Good luck, it surely makes the steel pop!!!! Thank you for your support brother. Chris [/QUOTE]
