nixy Posted July 5, 2009 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srobrien Posted July 5, 2009 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkie34 Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Try this blast from the past Brasso Duraglit.It's a polishing wadding,very good stuff too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuck Posted July 5, 2009 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronzee Posted July 6, 2009 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zednick666 Posted July 6, 2009 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MITZ@CougarStore Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Always used Autosol... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummybird Posted July 6, 2009 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted July 6, 2009 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clenz Ltd Posted July 6, 2009 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwalker56 Posted July 6, 2009 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted July 6, 2009 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
