Default Wadding Polish - good stuff

Tried this stuff out & worked great... gotta see in person though to appreciate...
its cotton wadding, you rub onto the metal surface & then use a cloth to buff & make shiny !
Go try it out if u havent allready... I used it on my aluminum pedals & exhaust tips...





Sorry cam/phone pics kinda hard to see..

I prety much had my fill of nevR dull, in basic training, my A-school, and my years on the Honor Guard. That, and the variouus ways of making Jump-Boots shine like a mirror (literally). Eventually I defaulted to having a drawer FULL of new, shiney brass for my Class-A's. I wonder how much a new set of pedals would set me back, 3-4 times a year... Hmmm...

Havent used that brand, but Eagle One makes other pretty decent stuff and I've heard it does the job pretty nicely.

the good thing about that never dull is once you do your tips once the black **** just comes right off with a towel or cloth.. great stuff

sounds like some quality stuff...i just went out and got it along with a Mothers clay bar kit that came with the clay bar, cleaner wax, and instant spray detailer. i got some good looks from ricer kids getting out of their civics as i drove away from pepboys, they wish their fart cans sounded like Remus! [8D]

I'll post before and afters of any trim i do and the exhaust in a lil while.

Well here it is...next step for the weekend is a wash, claybar, and wax.

What was needed: EagleOne Wadding Polish and an old pair of PJ pants (to wipe off excess polish


Befores



Afters




Worked pretty well, there were some tough spots right where the exhaust is expelled that i thought would never be clean again...but this got a good amount of the black soot off. Worth it for 6 bucks...water and carwash leaves the exhaust tips as you see it in the befores eek!
