Aluminum (and non-ferrous) focused compound restores luster to lightly oxidized or previously polished surfaces, resulting in outstanding shine. Especially useful for polishing under valve stems, on the end caps of tanks where buffing wheels can't reach, and between wheel spokes. Also suited as a lighter polish for stainless steel and chrome surfaces. Hone to a flawless mirror with our Extra Fine polishing cream. Apply by hand, buffing in straight lines with a terry cloth (following the mill grain of the metal). Buff off with dry side of cloth; if product dries on surface, apply a solvent and buff off excess polish. For more aggressive cutting action, apply by machine using a wool or other fibrous buffing pad on a polisher or drill. Solvents can be used to dilute the product, aiding in lubrication and cleaning on larger surfaces. We recommend using this to follow our Coarse polishing cream and finishing with our Extra Fine polishing cream for the brightest mirror shine.
