I don't know if your looking for the "mirror image" but I used simple green and a 1300 PSI pressure washer with great results. It was quick and the washer set me back $125 USD. It took all of 5 Min to soak with soap and clean with the washer. The results were great with the added bonus of removing the sludge from the inside of the mags. You could always try one of those "do it yourself" car stand but I don't know the PSI of the washing bays.

Throwing stars and the previous owner had only gotten around to polishing back two. They look awesome and I want to get the front two polished. I got one quote for 145 each. I have a dremel and I am thinking of taking this project on myself. Appreciate any input.

Thank you,

Roger
