Hey Ryan, coming from a polisher WEAR A FACE MASK OR RESPIRATOR WHEN POLISHING. That’s some of the worst stuff to inhale. Also sanding to 600 grit will make all of the difference along with a orange wheel for your first cut to remove more micro scratches.
Start with 220, 320, 400, 600, 800, 1000 and then hit it with a orange cutting wheel with brown Tripoli compound, wipe it down with pro 25, then the green color wheel with green moss compound, wipe it down with pro 25 again, and then finally hit it with the white wheel with the show finish compound and it will look perfect! I’ve never filmed myself doing an exhaust but I do have a video on my channel showing me using the different buffing wheels I cut and colored with brother!
2 minutes in and I don’t think people realize the time that goes into polishing that stuff, especially for someone that doesn’t cut corners (YOU). Keep up the content and keep on keeeeeepin on brother man 🤙🏽
Little trick I use at my dealer, when doing these o-rings I put dielectric grease in them, prevents pinching and helps keep them in place when reassembling hope that helps brotha
When getting the exhaust polished before you start sanding it down if there is any pits or light scratches in the metal, a dremel works good In seams or tight spots, and then sand it after that’s what I did when I sanded/polished my turbo housing(compressor side) and it worked good, hope this helps! Keep up the good work
You can get some wire mesh like for cleaning dishes and use some metal polish until it’s almost how you want it and the. Just use a rag and some time to shine finishing polish which is a great product
GREAT JOB RYAN. YOU'VE PROVEN THAT THERES NOTHING TO ADVANCED FOR YOU TO TRY, YOU HAVE A LOT OF TALENT FOR SOMEONE YOUR AGE. KEEP ON DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING FOR YOU ARE INCOURGING OTHERS TO TRY SOMETHING NEW.
You should do a vid on how your gonna do those switchback lights on the mirrors. I know u said u made a second channel but that is one thing I would love to see a vid on.
Great job Ryan…you look exhausted, and I’m sure you are. You work harder than most here in the Oilfields of Texas. Can’t wait to see the finish product.🙏🏻
We work up to 600grit and you would want to use a single action sander to get all the ridges out and then orbital with 600 then polish, but that looks good!
Some of your micro scratches will be from such a heavy first sanding with the 120, skip that 120 and start with a higher count it might take a little longer to get the sanding done but will end up the same time or shorter because your not chasing deep scratches out
Ya know I mean this with the upmost respect bc ik the skills you have n the ability to see a build before its even started, but I can’t wait til you build something outside of the typical trendy stuff. All looks good but when you venture passed the trend shit...you have the potential to build something n set the bar. Keep up the good work man seriously
@@ryan2546 man I’m ready bc you have the knowledge n skill to make something that stands out completely from everyone else. Hope you didn’t take any of that in a bad way bc I didn’t mean it like that. I love the builds but ik you’re about to make something badass🤙🏼keep it up brother you got my support
Sand it up to 600 to get the 400 grit sanding marks out and when you quick cut it with the orange wheel and brown bar all those sanding marks will go away
Also ive polished a whole semi i know your pain 😂 cant explain your micro scratches. Ive always done 3 steps by color green white then red or burgundy wax bars. Wasnt too picky since im offroad all the time. So i didn't try to perfect it.
should get a cross over line for it while u got the spyer out and riffraff deisel fuel lines because the oem hard line will rubb throw a p clamp in the valley over time and there larger than stock hardlines in diameter.
To do a better sanding job use 180 on a rotary machine like the one you used to polish. It cuts metal a lot faster to get all the lines and marks from the machining company!🤘🏼
Typically it is best to go to 600 grit to pull more of the micro scratches out and don’t went sand. Wet sanding does a weird thing where I find a lot of times the result doesn’t come out the best.
Evan Steger....Evans's polishing and detailing out of Chilton Wisconsin he's on TH-cam and is the man when it comes to polishing aluminum and stainless and his work shows at all the semi truck shows.
Ryan, trucks awesome your awesome but you may be wasting your time on that exhaust, I think it's galvanized steel so I wouldn't be worrying too much about it and if that stack you have is stainless your better send it off to a professional because stainless steel is one of the hardest things to polish, but as a beginner you can get practice on galvanized steel, get a orbital sander and it will go way fast, no reason to wet sand. 220 320 420 and 600 grit should do it, the best polisher I know in Wisconsin so not super far is Evan Steger. He is one of the best polishers I've seen. Got watch all his videos.
Put the buffer in a bench vice and a zip tie on the trigger makes it way easier for polishing tubes cause you can hold Both ends of the tube and move the tubes not the buffer your welcome
Would have ran dual stacks with flappers, but it is a great tribute to the 🍌🍌🍌 ram running a single. Fully polished will look amazing too. Definitely a Cummins guy, but those 7.3Ls properly modded perform and sound badass. Awesome work man 👍 Can't wait for the rest of the Jeep and First Gen Cummins builds.
0000 steel wool will be your friend when it comes to polishing gets in the tiniest of spots and a solid metal polish i use car pro products Idk if they are in Ohio but makes life a lot easier . All in all polishing anything is super tedious
At some point invest in a Baldor buffer. Probably get a better "bite" on projects. Maybe holding the pipe you would have more control and pressure. T.i.P products . I'm sure you know all about them.
"I'm gonna make this into a mud truck" didn't know mud identified as pavement😂 love the truck ryan!!
Did you just assume it’s identity????😉
@@TStevens8296 I'm sorry plz forgive me😭😭😭
Just full send custom interior, pretty sick to see a 2 tone interior to go with the theme
6.7 swap it he could make it look so sick I got one in my truck and it’s sick af
Might as well at this point

hey ryan, get a big bench grinder and put your buffing wheels on each end of it. way easier and more control of the job.
Mont the grinder on a solid surface with U bolts. That way you can hold the pipe wir cotton gloves on.
Mount. English hard
2 minutes in and I don’t think people realize the time that goes into polishing that stuff, especially for someone that doesn’t cut corners (YOU). Keep up the content and keep on keeeeeepin on brother man 🤙🏽
can’t wait for this too be finished and the first gen started🤩
EVERYTHING YOU DO IS A GAME CHANGER !!!
Thank you! Only one bein original out here!
You can use a Belt Polisher for that. They are amazing for anything with a contour.
If its not 304 stainless dont bother polishing. It will just oxidize and rust
Your cousin Anna is my manger and just told me to check this out I have a Audi s5 I like the page man keep up the good work
Mount t h grinder and work the tubing into the grinder. Helps alot.
Whats ur paint code for the pink ford realy love it
Polished driveshafts?
Little trick I use at my dealer, when doing these o-rings I put dielectric grease in them, prevents pinching and helps keep them in place when reassembling hope that helps brotha
Absolutely talented work bro
Watching this before work🤟🏾
This rigs gonna be slick. Can’t wait for the finished product with the pink/teal mix.
Been working a bunch but finally got caught back up. The build is coming together very nicely!
When getting the exhaust polished before you start sanding it down if there is any pits or light scratches in the metal, a dremel works good In seams or tight spots, and then sand it after that’s what I did when I sanded/polished my turbo housing(compressor side) and it worked good, hope this helps! Keep up the good work
To polish the pipe if it's stainless, use the finest grade steel wool and wd40
That is looking sick!! Can't wait to see the teal with the pink. You gonna do a teal bedliner as well?
That would be bad ass to see a teal Bedliner especially off that pink paint
love when ryan uploads
Have you heard anything on the bronco?
Never fails! Freaking love this build, so much class!!!!! As always absolutely hate the color
Why? its a great color combo!
Hahahaha
@@booboo4838 Just a differing opinion, same reason people go to Popeyes instead of Chick-fil-A
Your videos don’t do any justice on how much time and work this really is
Not the stack😭
You can get some wire mesh like for cleaning dishes and use some metal polish until it’s almost how you want it and the. Just use a rag and some time to shine finishing polish which is a great product
What inch tip are you going with I would go with 8 inch
GREAT JOB RYAN.

Tbh I’ve been binge watching all the banana ram videos 😂. Love the work tho keep it up
This inspired to build my 03 f250 but bro that turbo with the colors is sick😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨
Great job Ryan…you look exhausted, and I’m sure you are. You work harder than most here in the Oilfields of Texas. Can’t wait to see the finish product.🙏🏻
The polished exhaust is gonna look so clean

You have lots of "PATIENTS "..... my friend!!!! Cool stuff!!!!
you know just been waiting for this for days
Some of your micro scratches will be from such a heavy first sanding with the 120, skip that 120 and start with a higher count it might take a little longer to get the sanding done but will end up the same time or shorter because your not chasing deep scratches out
Bro its really coming out so clean:)
When polishing stainless use the red clay bar it’ll make all the gouges disappear. And scotch brite. Plus polish with the grain and it’ll blend easier
Ya know I mean this with the upmost respect bc ik the skills you have n the ability to see a build before its even started, but I can’t wait til you build something outside of the typical trendy stuff.

Haven’t been this early for a video in a really long time gotta love being at work when he uploads
You can also use the Eastwood "Burnishing, polishing machine or the Bluerock "pipe polisher machine" i believe Eastwood makes their version also.
Think it would look badass to polish the stack but have your logo LFTD in the brushed affect on it
Should've done the jeep color bikini pearl for the aqua/teal
Sand it up to 600 to get the 400 grit sanding marks out and when you quick cut it with the orange wheel and brown bar all those sanding marks will go away
Was gunna comment to do this. But i knew youd pull through 😎👌
Also ive polished a whole semi i know your pain 😂 cant explain your micro scratches. Ive always done 3 steps by color green white then red or burgundy wax bars. Wasnt too picky since im offroad all the time. So i didn't try to perfect it.
I believe white bar was the finishing bar
I think royal blue and pink would’ve looked amazing.
LOVE THAT TRUCK
should get a cross over line for it while u got the spyer out and riffraff deisel fuel lines because the oem hard line will rubb throw a p clamp in the valley over time and there larger than stock hardlines in diameter.
So 🔥😎, can’t wait to see it done !!!!!!!

I always handsanded up to 1,000 grit and then used cotton gloves and a bench grinder with a buffer wheel on it to get that mirror finish
🔥🔥🔥
Hey Ryan if i could make a suggestion, getting a set of riff raff intake and intercooler boots. Pretty inexpensive and actually makes a difference.
Looking good just not sure on that teal powder coat color
I admit y’all don’t crash this build this is going to be 🔥 I’m liking this build bro and always supporting up
I am a superduty nut and really enjoying this.I have a 02 350 with 7.3 and I can't get enough of this .Thank you ...
That cherry hand wash tho!

Did you not delete the AIH? kinda useless up here in Michigan so Id imagine youre fine in ohio too
Evan Steger....Evans's polishing and detailing out of Chilton Wisconsin he's on TH-cam and is the man when it comes to polishing aluminum and stainless and his work shows at all the semi truck shows.
I work from 120 grit to 600 then do one heavy cut, normal cut, then color
I used a d.a. With 600 grit & wd -40 then aluminum polish with the d.a. Sander 600 grit. Went quickly,then hand polish
I can get you the components for the side view mirrors I work at a company that builds nothing but mirrors and I work on those specific ones lol
Gotta ask the King of Bling for any polishing questions
Hell ya baby new vid whoop whoop!!

Powder coat the stack teal that would be sweet and definitely different
Put the window ceals in before you put the front windows in makes it way easier
Ryan always makes me want to go work on my car
And hit up king of bling for metal polishing
Nice!! So what do you think. Another 3 weeks or so until the beds on. Burning rubber!
grab a new alternator and pull it apart and powder the case. that would complete the engine bay and make it look even more finished.
why did i think you were going to powder coat the stack
At some point invest in a Baldor buffer. Probably get a better "bite" on projects. Maybe holding the pipe you would have more control and pressure. T.i.P products . I'm sure you know all about them.
Trynna see this thing next to Katie…
lol teal and white vs pink and teal
Bro ur videos have been so short the only thing you did in that video was polish the pipe
I used steel wool on my exhaust
0000 works wonders bro takes time tho
If your going for the polished look..maybe ceramic coat the hot side of turbo
Do a engine power washing video when it's finished
powder coat the alternator blue!
There ain’t no way in hell you didn’t have somewhat of a hard time getting all that In lol anyways your making me wanna do a lot more to my 01
Well that was an uneventful video lol, exhaust looks great though, cant wait to see it done!
Good, now go get some sleep dude! You look tired!!
Truck is coming along nicely, but it can wait till morning...
Ryan, If u are doing stacks do it up right. Run 2 and have true duels. When I see a truck with one it just looks dumb and cheap.
I disagree I think a single stack looks better, I used to like duals more, but seeing more singles have changed my mind
Keep it up
Wouldve looked way better without the stack and either an axle dump or dump before the rear wheel
You should powder coat the pipes teal
I just wanna see the wheels on it 😩
Geez Ryan keep this up and your Cummins will look like trash by the time you're done!.
his cummins will always look better
Take a shot at "um"
✨
That teal looking a little like Katie's truck
