Ok. I cleared my mobile browser cache and it went back to mobile. There's a buton for "full site" so there should be a button for "mobile site". Thanks for the help.

BigDaddy: The polishing is pretty simple. I put one of these cloth wheels on my bench grinder and got some polishing compound. Lightly dress the wheel with the compound and place the bolt head to it and presto....mirror finish. Wipe with a clean cloth afterwards to make it really shine. Here are links to the exact supplies I got from Lowes.

Lowes buffing pad

Shop PORTER-CABLE 6" White Polishing Wheel at Lowes.com

Polishing compound

Shop PORTER-CABLE High Gloss Gold/Silver Polish at Lowes.com


Can't help on the Alabama game...I'm an Auburn fan. You guys hold it down below 50-0 and you'll do good....

On the polishing wheel, I found some at HF that were 8" (P/N 46262) and worked much faster as the outer wheel speed was higher . It is messy, but can yield nice results.
