Case Study:
Caterham Race Exhaust
A short video illustrating the various stages required to attain a high mirror finish, demonstrated here on a stainless steel Caterham 7 exhaust system. The footage shows the stainless steel tube is heavily tarnished with heat scale, colour, scratches, dings and tar deposits. This is where the initial sanding process is vital to enable a high mirror polished finish, sanding metal takes skill and patience as incorrect techniques may lead to additional damage & a poor finish. All SCP polishing staff are trained and experienced in this method ensuring our capability to deliver superior quality finishes on all types of metal.

FAQ's
What's your turn around time for polishing?
What condition do the parts need to be in?
Can I send my parts by post?
Yes. Please use a tracked delivery service and send parts with a cover letter including your contact details. We will confirm receipt once the parts arrive and arrange delivery back to you by DHL.
Can you polish Chrome?
Chrome plating is very thin and excessive polishing will remove it. In most cases it is necessary to strip, polish and re-chrome parts in order to get them looking their best. This is a service we can arrange for you in conjunction with our platers.
Do you polish Alloy Wheels?
We will consider polishing alloy wheels if we feel our methods are suitable for the type of wheel. Simple designs and just polishing wheel rims / lips are fine but for more complicated wheels with spokes then a specialist wheel polishing company is the way to go.

I’ve never used SCP before and wanted some polishing work done. I took the parts to SCP and he was most helpful giving me a genuine price and taking images and getting me to take images of the parts I’ve given him so there was no problems with missing parts on collection. Collection day came and I was bold over by the quality of the finish that he had delivered for me at a very reasonable price. I most certainly would use SCP again and have no problems recommending them.Posted on Stuart RidgleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
