Metal Polish products

This topic is buried in one of my FS threads & thought it may be of interest to others.
I've been using Wenol metal polish for years & love it.

If you have any other products post them up

I have Wenol red which is more aggressive and Wenol blue which is a finish polish.

It's been a while since I bought these and don't recall off hand where I got it from.

The nice thing is that it's non-abrasive.
I don't recall where I heard about it originally.

I can't remember the vehicle, but on one of my exhausts the tips starting turning blue, I Discovered Blue-Job which is meant for motorcycles and it worked great. http://www.blue-job.net/

Autosol is good, but the finish it leaves isn't the best.

I've resorted to using it for my exhaust tips.

Britemax have a 2 part system consisting of an Easy Cut and a Final Shine. I've had great results with this for my polished dishes.
