Did some Polishing with my Powerball & Powerbal Mini Decided to give my new Powerball & Powerball Mini a try tonight and WOW!!!
These are the front hubs for my DIRT Racecar. They are a year old and have seen about every element out there. I diddnt think That Magnesium would polish up like it did but the came out very very well. It took me a total of about 45 mins to get the finished product. I used Mothers Mag & aluminum Polish on them, I applied the polish on the hub and let the powerball do all the work, the wiped it off with a old 100% cotton t-shirt. I just wanted to let everyone know about the powerball Series incase you might be thinking of trying them out.

Thanks guys, Im suprised how good it came out.
LS1MONSTER: I have both the Mini and the Powerball. I used the Mini to polish this one up. On larger parts the Large one works Awesome, but the small one goes places the Large one cant go. The only thing I found out Is that the Powerball is way more durable than the powerball mini . I Did some other parts for my car and after awhile the mini started to break apart and finally a section of it flew off. I had to go buy another complete powerball mini set but luckily My local Advance Auto parts had them on sale for $19.99 so I figured i'd better get another one. Mothers Is listing replacement heads for the mini but they arent supposed to be out untill January.
I Did the rear hubs too. They are also 1 year old Magnesium.

Dude..I can't believe the Powerball was capable of such feats. I'm going to pickup myself a set. I thought all it was, was a foam ball that was good for cleaning.

That's amazing! 
I bought a Powerball a couple months ago but, I haven't tried it out on anything yet. I put the Mini on my Christmas list because most of the things I need to polish are small areas. Hopefully somebody will get me one. 
I'm gonna try the big one on my muffler and exhaust pipes (all aluminum) to get a little "bling" underneath.
