Title: Polish-finishing S.E.X. 3.0 Chokes
Post by: roycruz23 on August 18, 2018, 01:05:56 PM

Hi!
I just got my kit. I want to polish-finish the frame and bells
of the chokes. I noticed that it does not have screws so I
can take them apart. Also frame and bells has clear coating.
How do I take the frame and bells apart? What is the best
way to remove the clear coating? Thank you!

If you do this, you will destroy the chokes.

You can sand on any of the silver colored metal (not the bottom of the chokes though).

Polishing will be tough since you can't take the chokes apart and a buffing wheel will probably destroy the leads coming out of the chokes.
