Yes - the same way you polish any metal yoyo. It may help to mask off the plastic. ---

> [@jhb8426](#): > > Yes - the same way you polish any metal yoyo. It may help to mask off the plastic. Are you saying I can’t do it on a plastic/metal throw? If that’s what your saying then how do i loosen up the rings? ---

Use masking tape to cover the plastic so you don’t get polish on the plastic. That’s what “mask the plastic” means. ---

Leave the rings on. Mask the plastic body w/tape. Polish the rings by any accepted method of your choosing. It’s that simple. ---
