gte999 Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 Hi folks re the above, whats the best product to clean them with. Ive been using brasso but it has taken ages to remove all the grime and crap from them and they still look tatty. Any help appreciated! thanks zedders craig Quote
nixy Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 i use autosol and very fine grade wire wool - they are like mirrors! I don't always use the autosol as the wire wool is pretty good just with a bit of quick detailer or something. Quote
srobrien Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 as above, autosol with fine wire wool -> autosol with cloth -> buff till i can see my face in them. R Quote
clarkie34 Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 Try this blast from the past Brasso Duraglit.It's a polishing wadding,very good stuff too. Quote
Shuck Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 I just use the megs nxt metal polish and they come up really well. Takes a bit of elbow grease on the inside though, will have to get some wire wool. Quote
bronzee Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 If you give them a gentle clean every week with your cleansing product of choice, both inside and out, they're then extremely easy to maintain to a high shine level. Quote
Zednick666 Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 As above, autosol & wire wool then buffed works an absolute treat I sometimes follow with a coat of Meguirs NXT metal polish too and they look Quote
brummybird Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I tried autosol at the weekend and there was an improvment straight away. I have got quite a bit of work to do on mine but autosol is shifting the muck Quote
Chris`I Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Mainly used Autosol, but recently used Meg NXT polish and it works just as well, but leaves behind a litte protection which makes it dead easy now to clean them as part of my wash with my old wash mitt Quote
Clenz Ltd Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I guess we have used most products on the market but the one we always come back to is Duragloss Metal Polish + superfine steel wool. And if you like the smell of Marzipan too you are in for a treat. Generally we pre-soak the cans with a solvent de-tarring product and then apply the polish via steel wool over the top. Product is easily rinsed off with water. Quote
mwalker56 Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I use Autosol, works a treat. Mine were well overdue some attention so i gave them a quick going over a couple of weeks ago, heres the before and after: Quote
Chris`I Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Does make such a difference. With the Nismo, doing the backbox too bings a smile to my face when its sunny and you can see it gleaming Even if my neighbours think I'm mad Quote
