You did a good job, I know you put a lot of time into making them look this good.

did you use that polish from our sponsor??? or what did you use??

actually no. I used a set of buffs and rouge bars from a jewel and metal polishing company in NY. Followed by mothers polish and soft cotton buffs


I also use flitz with excellent results,

just haven't had the opportunity to try the sponsors brand :(
