hello all. i hope we are all well. how can i clean up my new Contessas? i just gave them a wash which got a lot of the crap off them, i dried them, and i tried to polish them but that didnt do anything! first i used cut and polish...nothing. next, different cut and polish...nothing finally, i used my "cream polishing wax"... nothing. any suggestions? they are not currently on the car. PS has anyone ever heard of polish in cans separating, and all the water sitting on top? water sloshed out all over me when i opened the tin, i mixed it all up but now its a bit sloppy.... |

Sorry to hijack thread, but does anybody know if you can wet sand your chrome mags, or something like that to make them shinier? Just wanting a bit more bling bling on my 850!

Polish will seperate in a tin. Cutting compound does it worst. |

Autosol works a charm! It eats all the crap off and leaves it bling  . To go one step further you could use a power drill with a buffer piece or have them spun on a lauve.

you want bling ?????? ever seen how trucks shine ???? they use a product called purple i think this is what jan use's on mutant if i remember corectly now just think about it trucks do in a night what most cars do in a month (1000 kays) so if this stuff can keep alloy wheels tanks and bullbars shining what could it do for your car makka |
