Lynn,
  After embarrising(sp) myself not knowing what a "DA" was I now need some more
info about your method of resurfacing the 13B side housings.......I am now the proud
owner of a "Harbor Freight" "dual action random orbital sander".......I carefully filed
away the info you gave previously and cannot remember what grit of sanding disc
you recommended......Also would like to know how you attack the housings with
the "DA".......Do you keep the sander flat or at an angle while sanding ?......I do
realize that I need to be gentle and just put an even polish pattern on the housing......
Also I remember that I need to do the sanding wet with kerosene and finish with
a good soap and water rinse.......Any other helpful hints will be appreciated .......
 
Thanks,
