i did mine but just used 320, 800 wet/dry and brasso autosol. and it looks abit s**t cause theres still so many big divuts. i might have another go with some a*** s**t. but ive been doing it without taking the rocker cover off cause i cant be bothered. but it still looks heaps better than before

yea it does attract heat, but i dont think there are any serious problems with it.
what i did is buy another rocker cover and polish that up rather than polish it while its on the car.

Hi, just a quick question. it might seem dumb, but il ask anyways
 .
When you take the rocker cover off, do you need to replace any gasgets, or does anything spring out ( dont know much about cars yet) , or can you just un bolt, polish and bolt back on? thanks alot. P.S i am new, and thanks to everyone for all the fantastic Info used so far.

nothing will fly out, so dont be worried about that.
its fairly easy to take off, just 4 bolts and undo the hose that goes to the brake booster, and undo the cruisecontrol and accelereator cable from the throtle body. if your gasket is not damaged than re use it, thats what i did.

I thought I would post this... Its the proper way to polish metal. Although From my experience if your using softer metal try not to use the nylon wheel first just sand it until its clean.
