Shift Knob Refinishing

My shift knob was looking pretty rough. The brushed steel was scratched and looked well worn. I originally assumed the brushed steel portion of the knob was just painted plastic to match the rest of the 996 interior and I was planning on sanding it down and repainting myself. I had even gone as far as looking for a replacement mostly because I enjoy the look and feel of a good shift knob. I tried scratching off a little paint and realized the finish was actually brushed steel and not plastic

Looks good! Now just be careful when shifting in the hot sun! I thought the knob was painted as well. Thanks for the DIY.

Very cool, any chance you could post a pic of the sanding disks? I am not sure if you mean the flapper type of the flat round ones, either way would like to know. Thanks
