            How did you get your Vanos polished? I assume it was removed and you took it to someone?

              That's the easy way

              I do it almost all by hand, PITA. Rags and qtips plus Mother's mag polish. Labor of love, cheap therapy.

              Thanks Gary!

                    I am doing that (myself)! Did you do it in situ or when removed?

                      That looks fantastic! Curious of how many hours it took.

                            I've been polishing my vanos (and certain, other metal parts) (in situ) over the last like 5 years, so it's been a progression. I would say you can get it very shiny (not perfect - mine isn't even) in maybe 4 hours straight? Your fingers, wrists and elbows will get tired though . I would guess I have like 12 hrs total on it?

                                I am almost done swapping my interior from Grey to Imola, got a clean set of seats, swapped the dash , carpet , center console, basically everything , took me 2 quarantine weekends , very tedious and stressful but worth it.
