Re: Q on polishing alluminum

I'm not sure if you can still buy this or not but I had good luck with DuPont red hand rubbing compound cut with a little water and a buffer. It might take 2 or 3 passes with that then jewelers rough to get the mirror look. I used it on tanks, steps, and even a tool box or two in my truck driving days. I tried all that high dollar stuff and never found anything better. Of course I went to my local DuPont dealer to check on paint for a project a year or so back and everything that I asked for is no longer available. I hate it when that happens.
