Hey I just got a 70mm BBK TB, I'm wondering if this piece can be polished by sanding it down and buffing it.

I thought they were already polished, Just use some Aluminum polishing compound, My friend did it to his R-1 fram it looks really nice.

Well it seems to have a coating of some sort over the top of it. It's def not the typical polished or "chrome" look.
