Well considering that you were able to polish it and not wash out any lines, I would have to say shiny.
Outstanding work.

You did a very good job.
What I'm referring to when I say "washed out lines", is that all the machining is still crisp, I've seen a lot of polish jobs ware the corners, knurling, etc.; are gone and the piece looks it went through a rock tumbler.

No that is not the anodizing thats the polish still sitting in there i just got that out today so it looks supa good now. Did you have any issues with the anodizing?
And your lighting in the c6 host pictures are a little bad.

No problem with the anodizing just with the polish sticking in the groves so I used a soft toothbrush and it came right off.

And yeah my first couple pictures where taken in poor lighting but if you scroll down there where a couple I took outside that look better.
