My Durango has those running boards, ya know round bars that hang low, I think they're brushed aluminum (tell you know what I know about cars, but ask me abotu bikes!). Can I use my pc to polish these up? I was going to use an agressive pad with some heavy duty metal polish. Forst of all, if I totally clean the pads afterwards, no chance of the gritty polish staying in there, right? Or should I use my white pad that came with the pc to be safe?

Scooter,
Those round running boards (rails) are usually Chrome plated Steel or polished Stainless, depending on the manufacturer.

Try Never-Dull, I know you've got some if you are a biker. :cheers:

Luster Lace is the fastest and most effective that I have found

These are bad bad,.
I used a HD strip (no chemical) and TW, ranove rit. Then used TW and white pad went to work. Finished up with Simichrome, turned out pretty darn good!
