Hi Guys

Started cleaning the brushed stainless bits on my car today and didn't get that good a result with solvol so can anyone recommend anything else?

jif works a treat.

What sort of mucky?

Thinners ought to clean it up ok. Wear gloves though.

you can buy something called stainless cleaner, extractors we fit come with a sachet of it. Not sure whats in it though, or if its just a gimmick.

pledge furnisher polish works very well but ive found that only pledge works the best

baby oil, so my mother says.

Ask 907 he knows a bit about stainless

Actually baby oil works well but really only once the stainless is clean and shiny...

Guess it's like most things, if it's covered in poo when you start, no amount of baby oil is going to make things okay

Also works very well on the bathroom taps after you've Limelight'd them.... Also stainless steel sinks....

I tend to use a green kitchen scourer to clean the stainless exhaust on my daily driver. This works best if you keeps the 'direction' of cleaning constant and linear. I then finish up with some autosol. This gives a nice compromise between brushed and mirror polished.

"Peek" polish is pretty good, aparently the Classic bike mags recomend it but its really hard to find.

Some industrial cleaners where I was working managed to loose some.... how careless

Scotch pad.

The stuff I use is dark purple and comes on a roll.

WD40 and then baby oil.

Baby oil, not sure the lady in the chemist will believe you want it for cleaning stainless though
