    Not when you don't have any fingertips left from sanding down lips and polishing each individual bolt I could of committed a crime with no gloves and not left a trace. Super smooth

    Stick each bolt into a drill and shove it into a polishing wad.

    I did. Eventually ended up using a sock and all kinds of other microfiber towels. On my Works at least. Wasn't that smart my first time around. Still came out with some pretty beat up fingertips. They heat up REALLY quick on that drill lol

    Nothing says you can't keep a cup of cold water handy too cool them off while polishing.
