Im looking to see what metal polish you guys on the boards favor most or personally. I`de like to try that surf city diamond edge but my parts stores dont have that polish yet with the other surf cuty products. If anyone has used diamond edge let me know how you liked it.

Most OTC metal polishes I`ve found are crap (I mean, they`ll shine it fine, but when you see what a ~proper~ metal polish can do you`ll be amazed)



Best of best is the Nuvite line - mostly Nuvite F7 for cut, Nuvite S for final polish.



For example, here is my polished aluminum trunk, polished with Nuvite and a cyclo (nb: not polished anymore after I realized how bloody impossible it woud be to maintain)

I heard you can use finishing polishes for metal types.
