as you can see in my images the orbitals have some black spots or blemishes...i just wanna know if we can do something about this.thanks and more power
 
thanks for the reply Brip..so if i use metal polish or rubbing compound what will happen to the metal?im just curious...does anyone here have sample of the outcome?
 
Porosity in the casting,kind wondering why they would let that through quality controll.i would think if you polished it out the low spots would still show accentuating the defects.
 
porosity is not the issue, it is just surface discoloration...
ive seen this before,these are actually small pits in the material,ive looked at them under a 50x scope and the low spots are almost tarnished grey.i say blast em with a very light media then tumble or polish to a plasma finish,thats just me though.but thinkin about it now that may not really solve the problem.
