Needing a better way to polish steel, I picked up this 2x36 belt grinder attachment for a bench grinder! It's a great value at $200 and I've been very pleased with the results.
This video is a quick demo of using a 100 grit belt to rough the part then finishing with either a scotch-brite belt for a brushed metal look or using progressive finishes for a mirror-like finished. The mirror finish is far from perfect - due in part to a mediocre operator and a mediocre platen but it should offer a good idea of what this machine is capable of!
