sorry guys, I have been relying on one mf my neighbors unsecure wireless connection and either he forgot to pay his bill, or he moved or something

anyways,
Fish, I bought a set of three different sized buffing wheels and 3 different grades of wax sticks(red, gray, and white) and have that attached to my cordless drill. it works ok, but for nooks & crannies I will need something smaller, probably a dremel with a felt cone or something along those lines. I'll tackle that over the winter, right now I just want it to look better than it did.


the test spot that I did was on the cooling fins, and they have a coating on them

I'm glad to know that I'm not the only person who has done this, and even happier to figure out that it is fixable

best thing to get is just an aluminum polish. I need to do this too. my engine is in serious need of a good cleaning. Roads are dirty especially when it rains!

Has anyone tried mothers mag polish?

no, by the rec. of the guy at o'reilly's I went for the eagle one nano instead of the mothers, and I won't be asking that guy for advice anymore.
not saying the eagle one is bad stuff, but we even went out and looked at what I wanted to do and he just tried to sell me something rather than telling me what I need
