How do you explain ancient bronze mirrors Matt? They must have used very fine (ash?) abrasives to get a mirror finish.

I'm not claiming that helmets etc were finished to that degree, but they certainly had the technology.

Confusedhock: Gee- I would've thought it was pretty clear what I was saying... okay- guess I have to be moreso- they didn't have motorized buffing wheels and super-fine abrasives for making super-smooth, mirror-finish helmets like the commercial crap today... better? Sheesh LOL
