Ive never tried this stuff so I cant comment on it, but I just recieved some stuff called Mr Buffer today in the mail. It is an aluminum polish that was refered to me by an auto detailer. I have mothers, flitz and some Mcquires in the shop and have tried all 3. While yes these work with much effort and rubbing. They in no way compare to this stuff. It is a liquid that you apply with a cotton ball. As long as you are rubbing it will remain a liquid, it will then haze up and dry a little when you stop. Pass a rag on it a couple times and walla it looks like chrome. Im not shittin you guys, I have never used anything like this before. I am in no way affiliated with this company, just trying help the big dog community out so we can all spend less time polishing and more time riding.... The website is mrbuffer.com You will not be dissapointed!!!!
