Does anyone have a source to polish windshield surround trim in the Atlanta area

Good work is gettikng to be hard to come by, and when it is cost are way up. Quality down, long wait times and high cost
A friend has a plating shop has soured my supplies but are higher priced but work bettter.
Ever reconsidered sending stuff out and doing it in house?
If you can do body work you can do stainless.

It's not hard to do just labor intensive depending on the condition of the parts.

Lots of good videos on the internet on how to do it yourself. I did my own after watching a few.

If they are not twisted badly, bent or pitted, doing it yourself just takes some time, patience and practice.

Small body hammers, a good set of fine files and a comfortable work station, I have a adjustable bench top and a comfy chair, helps a lot to.

As for polishing, get a true polishing motor, not your bench top grinder, and put it on a stand where you have room to easily move the parts around!

I did my own on this car . 1st ones Ive ever done . Youtube is your friend trust me
Its not perfect by any means . But I was really happy with it .
The front wheel lip mldgs were hurt pretty good so I let the professionals do them ( local shop here in Tucson ) and they came out fantastic .

They do NOT do any re-annodizing though

I sold the car this week and the new owner was happy with them as well

I can't help, but agree with all comments I saw below. I scored a near new 2HP Baldour buffer for $100, spent another $70 on a stand, another $130 on supplys/apron/gloves/shield. All because I want to do my windshield surround.
If you have to buy equipment, it ain't cheap to do it yourself. And its mostly labor, so it ain't cheap to pay someone.

I polished all the trim myself with my bench grinder and Harbor Freight pads and compounds. Having a dedicated polisher on a stand that is not attached to a bench would make life easier but it's not required.

If no repairs are needed - look up Eastwood’s website for rouge, etc. I did.

I did mine and they came out looking new.

I have a separate dedicated polisher with two different pads on it. It's mounted to a couple heavy blocks of wood and somewhat easy to move around. If the weather is nice, I do it outside. Otherwise, you need to build a cage of some sort out of plastic or cardboard, because you will make a mess.

I've done some aluminum as well. I've taken the anodize off a few pieces (purposely). It does require some routine maintenance, but it's not bad. Something that would see weather more often than not, I would have re-anodized.

It is not hard to polish stainless trim. It just takes time and patients. I use my bench grinder and purchased an expander wheel and buffing wheels etc. from a vendor at Carlisle. I've done several cars and they came out great.

I got a free large Baldor buffer years ago, went to plug it in and found out it was three phase so I never got around to getting a converter, but would love to use it one day...

biggest thing with polishing stainless is to know that the polisher is the last part of the job. whole lot of sanding first. 600-800-1200-1800 grit then polish. if not you have just semi shiny stainless with scratches.

You can have it rewired for your house current or use another smaller regular electric motor to make 3 phase
One of the guys who use to work for me did that on a big 3 phase lathe that he bought to use at home

i don't know if this will work on your 3phase buffer, but my buddy found out he could get his surface grinder working by wrapping a rope around the output shaft and pulling, starting it like a lawn mower.

I am in Marietta. At this moment I am not very mobile ( badly twisted ankle ), but, if you can manage to get here, I will show you the trim I did on my 69 roadrunner and I will help with some good advice. Don’t worry about money!
