After years of buying 'snake oils' that promise to work wonders, I've grown very sceptical when it comes to cleaners waxes and polishes.

While working the LOTO Shoot Out, Tim from Bio Kleen was in the next booth selling his amazing product. Tim's a great salesman and by the end of the event he had sold me several bottles of his special sauce...

When I got home I gave his metal polish a work out and MAN OH MAN was I impressed! This stuff worked wonders on my dingy looking blowers and headers. It goes on easy and with a little bit of effort the results were amazing.

I got to tell ya, this stuff woks wonders on polished aluminum and stainless. I highly recommend this stuff.

Nice green guage :D:D

I saw Kurts motors after he was done and it was obvious that the stuff works!

Anybody use jewelers rouge? That stuff will shine anything!!

I tried 3M and the "Power ball" from mothers and it worked alright

Mothers mag, eagle 1, flitz, all good. anything the harley guys use I have found works well on stuff like that. Jewelers rouge is kinda' aggressive.

I've used the Mothers powerball, it's worked ok for minor polishing. It didn't work so well for severe pitting and confined spaces...

I also used metal compound and pad that you can buy from home-depot....which seemed to work well but takes a lot of time and patience...and I'd recommend wearing a respirator.

Then for the heck of it I bought a bottle of Leverage Metal Serum because I was happy with their polish and was shocked by the results... Donnies metal serum worked better on my blowers than the high speed drill/metal polish and the mothers ball all together... It also worked very well on my stainless exhaust sytem.

The metal syrum seems to have some kind of silica or abrasive in the polish and the more you work with it the better the shine, with no scratches.

Like biggus, I believe there's a lot of snake oils out there but I found this one to work pretty well!!!

I like Flitz, almost seem to have a "protectant" quality to it...
