Introduction
You might not think about the condition of your car’s metal parts, but that’s because you don’t see them. See, your car is made up of lots of different materials: steel and aluminum are just two examples. If you’ve ever looked closely at a car door or hood, you know that these pieces are usually painted over to match each other and the rest of the body. However, there’s still some visible metal underneath—and if it starts looking dull or scratched up, its appearance can suffer dramatically. Fortunately, there are plenty of products out there designed to help polish away scuffs and scratches on aluminum surfaces so they look like new again! In this article we’ll discuss ten different options available online right now along with their pros/cons so you’ll be able to make an informed decision when shopping around for one yourself later on down the road:
Meguiar’s All Aluminum Metal Polish
Meguiar’s All Aluminum Metal Polish is a metal polisher that removes scratches, oxidation, and corrosion from aluminum. It can be applied by hand or with a buffer to chrome, aluminum cars and trucks, stainless steel appliances or other metal surfaces. The aluminium polish can safely remove the scratches without damaging your car.
The polish contains an advanced abrasive technology that removes surface imperfections without damaging original paint coats or clearcoat finishes. The formula also has lubricants built in to prevent scratching while it restores shine to faded plastic trim pieces on your vehicle’s exterior.
Mothers California Gold Instant Detailer
The Mothers California Gold Instant Detailer is a quick-and-easy way to clean, shine and protect your vehicle in one step. It protects against UV damage and fading with a special formula that contains carnauba waxes that form an invisible barrier against harmful elements like water spots, acid rain and airborne pollutants.
The Mothers California Gold Instant Detailer cleans deep into the pores of paintwork for a brilliant shine on any finish including clear coat finishes!
Chemical Guys CWS 201 Super Copier Paste Wax
If you’re looking for a great car polish, Chemical Guys CWS 201 Super Copier Paste Wax is an excellent choice. It’s easy to use and leaves a shine that will make your vehicle look like new again. This wax can be used on all types of paint, including aluminum or chrome. Plus it’s easy to remove if you want another layer on top of the existing layer.
Nuvite Aluminum & Magnesium Polish
The Nuvite Aluminum & Magnesium Polish is a great choice for polishing aluminum. This polish is easy to use, and can be used on other metals as well. The polish can be applied by hand or machine, though it’s recommended that you apply the product with a buffing wheel if you’re going to use your car’s buffer.
3M Perfect-It Ultra Finishing Polish (500ml)
This product is great for removing light scratches and swirls. It can be used on aluminum, chrome, and brass. You can use it by hand or machine; however you like! This product comes in a 500ml bottle that costs around $30 at the time of writing this article.
Nu Finish G9 Motorcycle/Boat Aluminum, Chrome and Brass Cleaner
Nu Finish G9 Motorcycle/Boat Aluminum, Chrome and Brass Cleaner is a heavy duty cleaner that removes oxidation, rust, dirt and grime. It also restores shine to aluminum and chrome surfaces. This product can be used on motorcycles as well as boats or other vehicles that have aluminum trim.
This cleaner works best when sprayed directly onto the surface you want to clean then wiped off with a microfiber cloth or towel. If you need more than one application for stubborn stains then spray until desired results are achieved before drying completely with another microfiber cloth or towel
Meguiars D30016 DA Microfiber Correction Compound (16 oz)
The Meguiars D30016 DA Microfiber Correction Compound (16 oz) is an excellent choice for beginners and professionals alike. It’s made with microfiber pads, which means that they last longer than foam or wool pads, but they’re also softer on your paint job. This means you can use them with more pressure without worrying about marring your finish!
This polish comes in a variety of sizes if you want to pick up something smaller than 16 oz., but we think 16 is the sweet spot: not too big to be cumbersome or awkward to hold while working; not so small that it won’t last for long enough before needing replacement.(1)
