Anyone know a good polisher in the LA/LB/OC area? I need someone reputable that can polish my PK frame up nice. Thanks.

stay as far away from Astro's as possible. unless you like PK Rippers with the welds ground smooth and rounded off edges. they overpolish everything. not a problem if you're doing motorcycle parts, but they kill bike stuff.

try Kalediscope Polishing (talk to RAY) 1610 W 132nd St Gardena. 310-768-3491

tell Ray exactly what you want and you will get it.

I need my welds man! I will give Ray a call and see what he says. Thanks for the heads up.

Astro Plating sucks. I have used them from time to time for my construction biz, They NEVER do what you ask them to do.

just an aside.. PK Rippers' original finish was a ball burnish, not a polish. Lionel (carbizguy) can tell you where to get obscenely nice ball furnishing done. frame will look brand new.
