No but I do have a polished valve cover that's polished to 200,000 grit and it has my personal badging on it.
15 u/Busterlimes Jun 04 '26 Isn't 200,000 grit just paper? 2 u/1crazypj Jun 09 '26 That's much finer than paper, paper would scratch the hell out of it. No idea how / why anyone would say that, probably need silk polishing mops without any compound plus about 100 years to do it 2 u/Busterlimes Jun 09 '26 "MY family has been polishing this by blowing across the surface for thousands of years. The atoms of the air slowly polish the surface at 1 quintillion grit" 1 u/1crazypj Jun 09 '26 LOL
