    Re: Review: Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish

    Spectacular end result. Paper towels wouldn't be my first choice, but it's hard to argue with the results.

    A PowerBall or PowerCone would have saved the elbow grease. But, I'm lazy.

    Re: Review: Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish

    I had the guys try the Mother's Mag/Aluminum polish when I first started working at my current job. They were using Nevr-Dull which did okay but Mother's would finish better and quicker, so we'll never go back. We get it in the gal containers locally for about $50 and customers love the finish it puts on their aluminum. I have no reason to try anything else as it works wonders for us.

    Re: Review: Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish

    Well, let me start saying (I don't know if you've been advised), you missed a spot.

    heheheh !

    Sorry for kidding, I'm just ecstatic with the results shown! I really regret because last week I was flirting with this product on a store's shelf and hesitated to get one to try.

    You did an amazing work, rest assured all efforts invested are worth what's shown after. Congratulations and thanks a lot for sharing.

    Kind Regards.

    Amazing results Marc. Thanks for sharing!

    How did the paper towels hold up? I probably would have used an old terry cloth.

    Thanks a ton, Forrest! I wish I had a terry cloth towel or a powerball to make it a lot easier. Maybe even get slightly better results?!

    WOW! That's an amazing price.

    Thanks a lot for the compliments Tato! Thanks for reading my review and commenting.

    Hahaha that's hilarious! But I indeed missed a spot and I will remedy that once I install the exhaust on the car.

    You need to go back to the store and pick up a jar! You will not be disappointed. If you do, please let me know!

    Thank you so much, Davey!

    The paper towels were obliterated. They got gunked up very quickly. On the first pass, my paper towels would turn brown and I think that's coming from the top layer of oxidation (or whatever you call it). Once I started to see some shine, new paper towels would turn black as I polished away. I had to use a lot.

    Amazing transformation with hand power and paper towels Marc! That turned out better than what I thought it would with that method.

    May have to get a jar of that stuff for my pipes...

    Re: Review: Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish

    Nice job!

    Anybody know how this compares their Gold Class liquid version.

    Mothers California Gold Metal Polish cleans and polishes aluminum wheels and trim. Use Mothers PowerBall for easy, efficient application!

    Saw it the other day on the shelf next to the mag/alum cleaner. Think I would like a liquid dispensable product, but not if doesn't work as well.

    Our California Gold Liquid Metal Polish is just a liquid version of the paste - there's no difference between the 2. Some prefer a liquid with a PowerBall (easier to apply to the ball/cone than smearing some paste with your fingers), so we make it both ways.

    Gold Class is that other M company. We have California Gold.
