recently been in love with S100 polishing soap. How did I ever get by without this stuff? Nick at AG raved about the p21s soap, which is basically the same, so I took the plunge. been using it on all sorts of stuff including this:

my girlfriend was having a garage sale. there was this old metal table / shelving unit thats been in the backyard for months. exposed to the elements. it was gonna be used to rest items for sale. Gave it a real good citrus wash but was still left with some rust spots and just a crappy looking surface.

So I took 5 mins, S100 polishing soap, and my camera. As you'll see in the pics, it really made a difference and removed the majority of the obvious rust spots.

enjoy

The sponge applicator makes it very versatile. I love it on our SS sink! Try Collinite metal wax for another one you don't hear about often but is better than most out there!! Use it with 0000 steel wool for the win!

I tend to shy away from the steel wool but don't doubt you get great results.

Agree that the applicator totally helps to make this product a winner for me.

never tried the coli metal wax. I get decent results with Klasse AIO, but the polishing soap is way cheaper and just as if not more effective than going at it with KAIO

Colli is $13.99 for 16 ounces and that will last you for years as you use very little:

Collinite Metal Wax # 850 (http://www.autogeek.net/collinite-metal-wax.html)

P21S is $10.99 for 10.6 oz:

P21S Polishing Soap - State-of-the-art German metal-polishing technology is now available from P21S. (http://www.autogeek.net/p153.html)

Look at this writeup where I used the Colli metal wax with 0000 steel wool on some very nice chrome (on the bed rails) and look at how it cleaned up the very dirty chrome on the step rails. I love this stuff:

Seriously, don't be afraid of the 0000 steel wool!

I've been using P21s Polishing Soap for a month or so now and I love it!
