Kobayashi Kazuo – The Master Behind the Beauty of Every iPod and iPhone 3G

Category: DAP - PMP - Tags: Apple, Iphone, Ipod, Kobayashi Kazuo

Since seeing the first iPOD I was curious about its amazing polish… I finally found the time to check this out, and here’s what I found.

Kobayashi Kazuo is the secret behind each iPod’s gorgeous aluminum polish. Don’t get me wrong, Kobayashi-san a 65 year old man living in Niigata doesn’t polish every single iPOD or iPhone, or anyone in his company (five workers in total)… One day due to his amazing skill, Apple went to Niigata to check this nice fellow out and ask him the impossible, create an amazing polish for their DAP line-up of and soon to be phone reaching the 800grade mark (1000grade = mirror like quality) with just his own two hands (100% real craftmanship).

After many tests and hours of work, Kobayashi-san made the impossible come true and even succeeded beyond Apple’s expectations… Yes, the 800grade has been reached and Kobayashi actually delivered a 1000grade mark, giving the iPod and other Apple DAP products a beautiful mirror effect…

If you own a scratched iPOD and want its beauty back, who would be the best person on Earth for the Job? Yep, you’re right, Kobayashi-san and his team. For 2,100 Yen they will personally take care of your iPOD and give it a second life.

If you’ve ever wondered who is behind Apple’s gorgeous polish, now you know…
