Can anyone recommend a good polish to rejuvenate slightly tarnised aluminium.

Cheers
Michael

Peek or

Autosol

Both available from Halfrauds.

Use autosol on heavily tarnished and peek on lightly tarnished.

To clean alloy castings put in alarge pan and boil up with Rhubarb leaves --- honest !!!!

I've used Autosol to good effect on some fairly shabby ally. I have also been wondering if you can 'seal' the surface in any way once polished - maybe a wax of some sort???

Wadpol - used it on aircraft to good effect.

It's a bit like duraglit and comes in the form of an impregnated wadding. fairly cheap though ...
