I just bought a set of radiator shrouds on FleaBay for cheap. They are new, but aren't polished. What would be the best way to bring them to a mirror finish?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

make sure they aren't clear coated... then use a buffing wheel with brown trippoli compound, after that switch to red rouge compund, then finish with mother's aluminum polish by hand.. they'll look like mirrors

As for a good metal polish there is a product that used to be called Out-Shine but is now called Speedy. Its absolutely THE best metal polish out there.....I get from a local big rig supply store, about 15 bucks a quart and lasts forever....

Speaking of Ebay, is it just my computer, or are you redirected to a "search page" not related to Ebay? It's been like that the last 2 days?

Have you been on the search page before because if you had it could have been set as you'r home page or something similar.

if you have spyware. use spybot search and destroy

a2 malware/trojan/worm/spyware protector


they are both freeware, and are the ONLY ones that work and do not add spyware to your computer, trust me we have ran test after test on machines, and these are the good ones.
