O.K, good tip on the Green Stuff. CCW's look great... I had heard that the cage of the bottle tends to rattle at the pins. Thanks for the info!

I bottle that bracket used and sanded it and polished it by hand (hours and hours went into it!) The pins that where in it were old looking so I bought some new ones at Lowes and they seem to be a hair bigger because they are a PIA to pull in and out, so they maybe bigger and tighter than the factory ones and if so keep it from rattling!

This pic got me sold. The before pic is exactly how my draglites look like, so hopefully they will shine up. Gonna order my bottle right now, still comes with a microfiber cloth?

Just ordered a bottle today, and can't wait to try it on some valve covers. The buffing wheel was taking too long to achieve the desired results.

Does anyone know if there are any specials on the Blingmaster polish. Thinking about trying some on underhood stuff. Thanks

Well I got my bottle in today and had to do a quick polish. Just 15 minutes on one wheel and there was a total difference! It almost looks chrome

When the weather gets better, I'll have to post some before and after pics.

So I must say, awesome product, fast shipping, and great service (free microfiber cloth)

Why is it that the pros and top detailers and the country don't use this stuff? I made a thread on Autopia.org, and the best detailers in the world prefer other brand names such as Adam's, Mother's, etc.

I got some about a month ago...very easy on and off. Takes very little (dime sized drops on a cloth to do a whole wheel) to work.

Looks very good when done...almost identical to 15 minutes with a mothers power ball...maybe a slightly richer deeper shine but not a ton.

Same basic stuff as a brand called Green Magic I once bought at trader's village in dallas for a lot cheaper ($10 for a larger bottle)

unlike some of the mother's polishes it doesnt seem to help water bead and run off very well...the wheels looked a little dull after a a couple weeks driving and washing them off didn't bring back as much shine

might try waxing them lightly afterwards next time

honestly, i think the name of the product affects its marketability. the name of a product is a huge part of how
well it sells.
