Chicago Salt and aluminum oxidation, using marvels mystery?
« on: March 10, 2015, 07:13:12 PM »
So I moved to chicago in august, seems to salt and slurry mix they throw on the roads played hell with oxidizing my aluminum (which had been polished pretty nicely prewinter during a rebuild), wondering if anybody had a good chemical to get ride of the oxidization? I saw a video of a guy using MMO to clean and it worked eh... anybody got anything else?

green dragon, polish but i'm not sure where to get it. I got mine from a guy we drag race with. He lives  by the Joliet track. white diamond is supposed to be good too. I searched for green dragon, it seems to be a drug cocktail too.

 I don't see a price on the green dragon but the racers swear by it, it has carnuba wax that protects and a really good polish in it. It seems to polish when you rub it off.  I use it on the Alcoa wheels on my truck and everything aluminum on my bikes and race car.
 That's actually the first time I've seen it listed anywhere.
