I love your videos and they help a lot but I have a question, why does everyone recommend a 6,000 rpm but the airwaves are recommended for 3,400-3,000?? I’m debating on a new grinder but if I don’t need a high rpm one I will save the 40$.

@EvanStegerMetalPolishing

I like the high speed because I can build and maintain heat much faster. And for me and my shop time is money and no one ever offers to sell me more time. LOL

Just wondering if you would recommend using a new or "almost ready for the trash" pad when polishing the step treads?

@EvanStegerMetalPolishing

4 жыл бұрын

On Kenworth step treads I use new ones but on Peterbilt steps I use almost trash ones.

Evan I appreciate all you effort you put into your videos, there truly helpful. I was hoping for a little advice. How would you recommend pricing steps on the side of a Pete tank? If you think about the two steps plus the two pieces of sheet on each side is it a $30-$40 service or more $60-$80 service? I know condition and final condition will vary but any broad guidance would be greatly appreciated.

@EvanStegerMetalPolishing

Жыл бұрын

Great question but it depends what you are all doing. On the Pete steps I normally just do the faces of the steps and not the tops. Tops alter the price greatly as they chew up buffs and compounds. So that inherently needs to come at a higher price. I do step tops/treads at a minimum of $20-30 each tread area depending on the condition. The complete step may be $30-80 depending. So you nailed the pricing right on the head.

i have some step treads that are in awful condition, really rough with tons of deep pits, is there a good way to sand the treads? Ive been using a satin wheel first to knock down the roughness but its not able to smooth the pitting out and it destroys the wheel quickly. Just wondered if you have any tricks or should I just concentrate more with the heavy cut compound and let the heat work more? Great videos, learning a lot!

@EvanStegerMetalPolishing

There really isn't a great solution to your problem. Any option is really pricey. I avoid doing them once they get rough. Too costly to polish and still make money on my end. Sorry I'm not great help in this dept.

All good, thanks! I got them done, almost killed me very long process. I usually don’t acid wash first but in this case I thnk it helped. Also learned less rpm on the buffer is beneficial the punchouts in the step generate a lot of heat, i was burning a lot of compound working at a higher rpm. Good videos! Appreciate the help!

Hey Evan thank you for all your responses. I do have one silly question for you and the pro's out there. I've noticed in allot of your videos you mention the various RPM's to use in different applications. Well let's say i get the makita 9237CX3 with a variable speed dial, 0-3200 RPM's, as your going through the speed dial 1,2,3 etc. is there a chart that tells you the RPM's for that particular speed dial number. Thank you as always

If they are rough yes. But I personally don't sand them. I don't do them if they are that rough. Sanding it takes a ton of time and can keep someone from making money. If it is your own thing then cost isn't an issue. But that is just the way I do them.
