Alu polish

abcdggs · 2010-03-23 01:32:11

Just picked up a set of cranks that were a bit worse for wear, so i've started sanding them down to get rid of the worst of the scuffs and scratches. I'm wondering where i might pick up some aluminium polish or what i should be doing to get the cranks to shine? Thanks

what grit you going up to 900+ ? there is some metal polish called autosol (i did get an alternative but cant remember the name) from autofactors

and you really need a clearcoat spray to keep that finish otherwise it oxidises
