Frequent Polishing

[LeChicharon]

Now for most duners and people that want their bike looking great. You may polish your aluminum. Every Weekend! Mabe?

 

Heres something that might cut down on the time.

 

I use Heavy Metal Polish (light Abrasive). I have not tried this with Mothers or Blue Magic (the big brands)

 

Using the polish do as u usually do. Polish the wheel or "piece" until it turns black. Make sure you get every nook and crany on the first go around or u have to start all over!!! Really work it in.

 

Now instead of buffing off the residue. Take HOT thats HOT water with a tiny bit of liquid soap ie Dial not a moisturizing soap. On a clean rag. And wipe off the residue

with that.

 

Then take another clean rag and dry of the peice. This is for already polished pieces that are only oxidized or heavily oxidized or cloudy.

 

Thus giving you the same results as the dreaded buffing off the residue.

 

Hope It helps!
