Not everything polishes up that well, but this picture shows one of the best spots. Definitely an improvement over what it looked like before.
The chaincase did not fare so well. Paint lifted off the front, but the rest is fine. Can't explain this one, but it just goes to show that paint can be a finicky thing to deal with.
Where it is at the moment. Time to enter into the "how much money do you really want to pour into this thing?" discussion of rims, tires, grips, pedals, and rear reflector.
And a replacement chaincase, ideally; the loss of paint drags down everything that was achieved polishing the rest.
