The Mothers will give it a polished look like @kronin323 advised in his review. You can’t just do a small section where the scuffs are because it won’t match afterwards.

Yes I’m aware. I read the whole review more than once. The case is pretty dull overall so I figured I would bring it back to life

They are manufactured with that full brushed metal finish, but I like the way it looks with polished corners and dull panels.

I started using a dremel with fine steel polishing wheels to get around the rivets. I found that was the hardest part, getting an even look around the rivet heads.

I agree, I was planning on polishing the pillars into a high gloss and the rest to semi gloss

Of course they are. I saved the case from being abused, that’s how I look at it.

See that's why I like you. You are good people.

I was only able to do the bottom panels, but so far I like it. It removed a lot of blemishes.

It is, but I’ve been doing it in pieces. I’m not in a rush because I just ordered tempered glass shelves for it today so I have to wait for them for the case to be ready anyway.
