Finishing

Restoration-grade finishing on aluminum.

A specialist shop focused on surface integrity, finish consistency and the mechanical understanding to back it up — for builders, restoration shops and collectors who want OEM-level results.

01 / Services
01

Engine cases & full engines

Disassembled aluminum only — cases, jugs and covers brought back to factory-correct.

02

Carburetors & intake

Carb bodies and intake cleaned of fuel varnish and oxidation without harming jets or surfaces.

Covers, housings & brackets

Side covers, points covers and mechanical brackets returned to an even satin finish.

Precision cleaning & prep

Prep for rebuilt or aging aluminum — clean surfaces without altering critical tolerances.

02 / Specialty focus

Vintage & restoration-grade work.

Our core work centers on restoration-quality vapor blasting where surface preservation matters as much as cleanliness. Every piece is treated so casting texture is maintained while oxidation, staining and contamination come fully off.

How a part moves through the shop.

Vapor blast

Media suspended in water lifts oxidation and contamination while preserving cast texture.

STEP 03
