    How to get "cloudiness" out of metal

    Ok. I'm selling my toy hauler. I figured u guys would know best. I want to make it as presentable as possible and it's an entry door.It has a little cloudiness I guess is the best way to describe it. It's metal.I'm not sure what the actual material is that I'm trying to fix on top of the door (chrome, stainless steel,etc). I tried mother's metal polish and klasse aio. its better but didn't come out completely.Thanks

    Maybe give some P21S polishing soap a try...I've had great success with it. Good luck!

    Try Never Dull on an inconspicuous area. It's slightly abrasive with a chemical cleaner mixed in it.

    Are you talking about the mirror finish? That's polished stainless steel. The frame is uncoated aluminum.

    The stainless will stand up to some hefty metal polish (with a rotary if you like). Or even with a pad on a drill. It's pretty durable stuff, and polishing it can turn into a job with a bit of elbow grease.

    Yes the mirror finish. Ok it's polished s.s. then. I'll take a machine to it. Only briefly tried some hand polishing at first. Thanks!
