I'm just repolishing the engine stuff. My days of polishing from cast or machined are over, that stuff gets sent out.

THis is the pink cotton candy/insulation looking stuff that I have used. It looks the same as X-treem:

The truckers used to have a trick that involved diesel when cleaning their fuel tanks. I don't remember what it was, but it was a quick polish deal. I'll have to search my memory banks lol

Yeeep, having only used the cotton candy stuff from Wizard, I would absolutely consider using it on something that large Originally Posted by Paul65K

Assuming that this stuff from Wizard (the pink cotton candy stuff) is essentially the same as x-treem I would go with what SharpShooter is suggesting... He has miles of aluminum to polish and his stuff looks great... See his post #22
I liked the wizard stuff because it seemed to work so easy (less elbow grease and not so messy)...
S.S. has way more experience in this area...Last edited by 2manymustangs; 03-24-2014 at 07:46 AM.
