Hi mate, i did a couple by hand as you described, too much hard work. Buy an  orbital sander, use your wet and dry sandpaper in the increments listed, and use a spray bottle with small amounts of water (water + electricity = :P) and finish with 0000 steel wool, get's them pretty good. I happened to have a bench grinder, so i bought a calico polishing wheel, and the right compound and that gets them like a mirror in about 10 minutes, All the best, Matt.

Hey man!
Sorry to dig such an old post, but could you please share more details on how you use the bench grinder to polish enclosures? Specially the compound part - I'm not quite sure what I should look for to be able to use a bench grinder to polish enclosures.

I want to speed up the polishing part because doing it manually is very tiresome, so i was looking for alternatives and the bench grinder option sounds perfect!

Did you find what the issue was?

About halfway down in this thread, DutchMF posted a switch diagram pdf.


It worked for me.
It switches the two circuits between series and parallel.

Did you use that with the mutron/duophase circuit? Did you had any issue with it (loss of volume, feedback, etc.)?
I was considering and splitter-blend from ROG, but this is much simpler and if it solves the issue without any downsize, I would prefer this approach...

Thank you, and I'm sorry to reply on an old thread...
