I got this 10' satellite dish for free, it's an aluminum dish, I just have to take the paint off and polish' it, this is a big saving, no mirror to buy, yeah
|
|
Here's my son grinding the dish with a wire brush but I find an 80 grit sand paper on the grinder goes faster.
|
| |
This is after one hour of grinding, not too bad.
 |
|
I almost did half of the satellite and I burnt my grinder #@!@#$, I only paid $20 for the grinder- time for a new one.
|
This is after an few hours of grinding.
 |
|
After taking the paint off, I wanted to know if it works. This is the result with the paint off.
|
I finally gave up trying to polish the dish - i caved and bought Mylar and glue it on with 3M Super 77.
 |
|
This is with the Mylar, it is so hot that the piece of wood caught on fire in just under 5 sec it was unbelievable.
|
This is after 5 sec.
