Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

      what kind of rims are you trying to polish? because if they still have the clearcoat on them then the polish wont do anything

        Mothers, It comes in a little cylinder container. That is what I use for my FMIC Piping on my WRX.

          Advance/AutoZone polishes are OK for quick jobs but if you want a blistering shine use:

          P21s polishes


          If your metal is pitted, hazed or spotted you'll need something a little abrasive:

            if it is in fact bare metal that you are polishing, i would use mother's mag and aluminum polish. it has quite a reputation. later.

                  mothers is an obvious favorite since its easy to find; but wait till you try products from English Customs. from their metal polish/restorer to the Customs Show Blend, previous products i've used in the past doesn't even come close. and the fact that these were the only polishes that helped remedy the mirrored-polished lip(s) on a set of forged wheels i had two winters ago, got me sold on them.

                  i can get them from here:

                    Semichrome Polish is good too if you can find it.
