Best Product and Method to polish blower and headers
 

Anyone have any recommendations on the best products and or methods to polish stainless stellings headers and blower casing?

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 use Mothers aluminum polish on the pulley's, blowers, and the cmi's

Use Mothers power ball& polish it works great! Mark

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...

Try this stuff
 

Busch Aluminum Polish is the best. Look it up on the web. Used by truckers on wheels and fuel tanks. I used it on a set of wheels with great results after a professional refinisher could not do anything to help. Helped my daughter bring home a 3rd place trophy from Carlisle Truck Nationals

Look on Eastwood's website. Metal polishing has a very different set of products than are sold "over the counter". A previous post mentioned jeweler's rouge which is what I use with a 1/4" buff mounted on a drill or a die grinder. They sell kits with all kinds of buffing stuff for stainless/aluminum.

if it's the first time polishing...electro-dip polishing will save a lot of elbow grease.

I don't have much to polish on my boat. However my drag car has quite the engine bay. Jewelers roughe works wonders, but it comes in all kinds of compounds. "White Rouge" is what you want to use on alum. you can even go back and clean it up with the spray and wax that they sell.
