I think i've got Moombitis some form of rare disese, yesterday I polished the ski pylon support see pics. Have I gone mad , or are there others experiencing the same sort of symptoms.

Sand it down with 220 grit then 400 then 600 / 800 / 1000 / 2000 wet sand then buffing compound # 5 and finally a buffing pad on a grinder and voilą !!

Clear coat it so that it will stay that way longer.

I would agree completely or it will probably end up looking worse in the long run IMHO.

That looks fantastic but it's a colossal waste of time. You have plenty more to do, don't you?

That's the one mike, it feels great resting your elbows on that when working in the engine compartment.
