[QUOTE="olympic, post: 16364994, member: 168598"] You're starting with a used catback so it's going to be quite a bit more work than a brand new system. I'd start with 120-150 grit and see how that does. You need the entire surface of the pipe to have a smooth consistent appearance(no scratches, cloudy areas, rust, etc) before moving up to the next grit. I'd also recommend using a power sander like a 5" random orbital or even a palm sander. I put about 12 hours into polishing my new catback using power tools. A used system polished by hand would probably be 20+ hours! :eek: [/QUOTE]
