jugs was created by idkleine

Does anyone have any advice on refurbishing the fins on my kz650 cylinders. I don't want to paint them, I just want them to look clean. I bead blasted them last time I had it apart and put some high temp clear coat on which toasted to a nice toasty gold color and looks like crap. So far the case halves are painted and the side covers are buffed. Just haven't figured out what to do with the jugs and the head.

If pro is opposite of con, then what is the opposite of progress?

If you just want them clean SOS pads work great they take some time but will clean the aluminum up nicely
