1st pic before, all after, very happy with my 1st attempt at restoring a handle, all by hand. Had confirmation from Omega that it's a long discontinued #625

That looks great! How do you restore the shine, Shaun?

That looks great! How do you restore the shine, Shaun?

microfibres cloth, various grades of liquid car polish & used a paracord soaked in polish for the concave bit.....oh & elbow grease.

That is very good work! Perfect set of products to do the work and the paracord was inspired.

Being an avid car detailer in my day, I'm interested in the product set. Which polishes did you use?

Peek, Megs #205, Adams liquid metal #1 #2

Sound! Peek reminds me a lot of 3M Ultrafina SE but in a paste form. I used to use the 3M polishes mostly, but did use the #105/#205 combo a good few times. Those SMAT polishes brought something quite different to the market and responded to both machine and hand polishing very well.

Again, really good work and you should be proud! Enjoy YOUR new brush
