I wanted to show how easy it is to do your own brushed finish.
I ordered some canvas straps from Cheap Nato Straps. Nice straps, but they all come with a polished buckle and I'd prefer a brushed finish.
Here is one I just did this morning. Here is the before polished finish.
Here is what I used. A dremel with an abrasive polishing brush.
And just polished the buckle going the same direction to get the brushed finish. You can always start on the back of the buckle first to make sure you are getting the finish you want.
And here is the finished product.
Thanks for looking and hope it might help someone looking to try their own brushed finish.
