I've got a fun little project I'm gonna share with you guys here is the radiator
set off of my Oh three cr250 and when I started out with them they were
completely mangled all twisted up dirty and corroded so I've got him
straightened out and cleaned up but now I'm gonna see how close the new I can
get him to look so the radiators actually don't look too bad they're
pretty straight and clean but I'm gonna go through and straighten out some of
these fins and I know I can get that finish to look better and here is going
to be my weapon of choice for cleaning up the radiators a little dremel tool
with brass and stainless wire cut at
change of plans I came across these scotch-brite attachments in the shop and
I'm hoping that leaves a more consistent shine the wire cup seemed to work
alright but the finish is a little spotty
the scotch-brite attachments work a little better but still not quite the
finish I'm after and as you can see they wear out pretty quickly but I've got
another tried-and-true option I'm gonna explore the good ol scotch brite wheel
on the buffing machine this should be magic
that definitely did the trick however I think the dremel tool with the Scotch by
attachment would still work pretty good in some of the tighter areas
all right the next step is pretty straightforward just gonna go through
and straighten out some of these fins using a small flat blade screwdriver
should be able to get these sides looking good but the back sides are
pretty rough it is going to be tough to get them perfect
so I've got these things looking pretty good really happy with the outcome and
it didn't take too much work either the majority of the feds are straightened
out but on the backside here like I was saying earlier there's some damage that
just isn't repairable shouldn't affect their performance much though I hope you
guys picked up a tip or two from the video like always all the tools and
supplies used throughout the video are down below so please go use those links
and if you haven't seen the video of me straightening out these radiators yet it
is pretty amazing just click this box right over here to go check it out
that's it for today thanks for watching guys
