You should polish it real good again to where its perfect and they take it and have it powder coated clear...No mo Polishing!

I considered doing some polishing like that myself before.  Then I had the foresight to visit Schihilling Polishing at closing time.  Everyone there including the owner looked like coal miners. It was hot and dusty with the blackest stickiest crap you can imagine.  Right there I decided to leave the polishing to the pros. I could not save myself enough $ to justify the effort.  Great job I commend you on a great looking manifold.

By All means have it clear powder coated. i did my Bahner that way and it was da kind! I watched my friends break their fingers polishing their shyte, and i wiped mine down with a damp cloth.
