Right now their aluminum polishing kit is $20 (1/2 off retail price) and includes several felt bobs & wheels, which I think are worth the $20 by themself! Check it out! :2vrolijk_21:

Whats the best polish for aluminum ?

Hey there,
I'd like to throw my hat in the ring if I could.
My name is Clint and I own the company that produces Sharkhide Metal Protectant and polish. I just like to be up front and let folks know who their talking to. I'm not so much here to try to sell you something as I am to show you what's possible with my products and hopefully answer any questions I can about them.
No matter what type of polish you like, most all of them can get to a great shine. The trick is finding a polish that gets to that shine the fastest and with the least amount of work. Mine is a single step polish that's a bit more aggressive than most because we not only use it to clean up and maintain an all ready polished surface, but we also can use it to polish raw aluminum (and any other metal) to a mirror finish. Then we apply the Sharkhide Metal Protectant and were good to go for years. No more need to polish. We just clean with warm soapy water and dry.
I know these aren't pictures of a bike, but in this case aluminum is aluminum.
I hope I can help with your project.
Clint

THIS IS A BOAT WE POLISHED THIS PAST SUMMER. WE POLISHID IT WITH SHARKHIDE METAL POLISH, THEN APPLIED TWO COATS OF THE SHARKHIDE METAL PROTECTANT

THIS IS A SHOT AFTER SEVERAL WEEKENDS OF USE ON VARIOUS LAKES AND RIVERS IN THE MIDWEST. IF YOU LOOK IN THE CENTER OF THE PONTOON YOU'LL SEE A DARK STREAK. THIS IS A SPOT I MISSED WHEN I WIPED ON THE METAL PROTECTANT.
