    X2 for Never-Dull it works wonders.
  • I have not used it, but I've seen the results of Aluma-Glow, which I suspect is an acrylic in the Red Max/ Zep Wet Look vein. Basically get the aluminum clean and uniform and the coating makes it shine.
  • One of the highest regarded metal polishes in the world is SIMICHROME from Germany. Mauve and yellow box and tube. Some "polishes" are car wax, and would not polish anything. Simichrome contains diamond dust and will polish the blade of a buck knife. A micro fiber shop towel really helps to speed the polishing up.

  • Aluminum polish of your choice.
    Use a 4" square of carpet to apply with and rub with.

  • I have spruced up diamond plate tool boxes with fine steel wool, CLR and elbow grease, followed by a nice application of Mothers polish.
