Got a liter of "peeks" polish from Amazon - $37.50 delivered.  Seems to be a great quality polish, used it on my stainless BBQ and it did an amazing job, tried it on some bi-metal spoons that have been laying around in a fishing box for years and it cleaned them up like nothing.  Neighbour says that the guys that fish the "Tyee Pool" here have used it for years.  Cdn Tire sells a 100gram tube  for 11 bux.

Sounds nice, have you used it on aluminum yet?

How much rubbing?

not much elbow grease required at all.     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpRG0Pf1Ihc


saw a vid of a guy using it as part of process for restoring plastic headlights.

the fishing spoons were very fast, I remember doing them with Brasso many moons ago and this was nothing like that - way better

they have the small tubes there, if you decide it works for you then the big can which is 10 times more polish can be got from amazon for 4 times the price.

I did try it on an old aluminum water pitcher and it shined it up quite nice with little effort.  Need to try it on a wheel and see how it does.
