I'm in the process of building up a Merckx with NR/SR parts. I needed to know if anybody has any tips on how to polish the stuff up and which parts can and can't be polished. I took to the flanges of my SR hubs with my dremel and simichrome polish and it seemed to work well. Buffed up a nice shine to it.
I reckon the black or anodized parts can't be polished, but which ones are those? I usually can tell with new stuff, but with older stuff, I have a bit of a harder time telling the difference between silver anodized and just plain aluminum.
BTW, should I take apart the wheels before polishing?
