I tried Heavy Metal polish and.....
I couldn't find any info on the forums about anyone who was used it but I know Boyd recommends it so I figured I would be the guinea pig. The results on their site I saw were all great and I was convinced it was worth buying so I did. Let me just say this, throw all the polishing **** you have in the trash. I know that's a bold statement but this **** is amazing. I ordered it from a non sponsor link on Monday and got it on Thursday. $20.00 each for medium and fine 16 oz. each which is a lot. Heavy Metal is not a paste, it's an oily liquid with abrasives that you can see chillin' at the bottom of the bottle. I also ordered a mothers powerball which hasn't come yet and I'm going to use it with that. I figured just for ***** and giggles go ahead and try it out because I couldn't wait anymore. I grabbed 'em up and a microfiber and went to my car for a quick little test. My wheels are dirty and there is salt on them and some stains. **** I couldn't remove with Billet and Neverdull after hours of hard rubbing came off INSTANTLY with this Heavy Metal polish. Just a few seconds of rubbing made the section I was working on look like they were brand new if not better than when I got them. Since it's a liquid it goes a VERY long way and it didn't seem to dry out on me either like a paste, it just kind of dripped. The polish turned very black and was very easy to wipe off. And I do mean wipe, no need to rub. BTW, these are AFS 18" Z06's. When my powerball gets here and I go out and buy a drill I'll detail the whole car and post pics before and after. Sorry none right now but I don't have all the **** I need or the time but I will let you all know and see how it went. I have no doubt that my polished aluminum z06's will be chrome like in little to no time at all. Stay tuned guys.

Been using this for a couple of years now - ever since I got my Boyd's. I haven't tried with a drill attachment - I've always polished by hand - but I can't wait to see what that turns out like...

ah i see now. i think the medium will do me good, might get a small around of the fine formula to give it a better shine after the mediium takes care of the stains
thanks for the PM
