I have an F3 stunt bike and i was thinking of polishing the frame over winter, but the frame is made of steel right? Can you ploish a steel frame or does only aluminum or an alloy get that shine? I have polished rims before so i know the idea but i just have never read anything about polishing a steel frame. Any info would be great, especially because i only think the frame is steel not even sure about that! lol

steel polished up just fine. Just use a good degreaser to get it all clean and go to work with some polishing compound and a dual action buffer. Worked ok for me. Not as 'deep' of a shine as I got in aluminum, but still decent. Then again, I got lazy after a little bit, so you might be able to get a better shine than I got.
