Default Best aluminum polish for Welds?

I've done a few searches and have found about 20 different suggestions for aluminum polishes. We have a buffing wheel at work so I'd like to use something that'd work good with that. Any suggestions?

The stuff I use comes from here: www.caswellplating.com

Go to their buffing and polishing page, then click on the link that says "Blue Rouge" on the right hand side. I've tried the whole gambit of products through the years, and this stuff by far brings out the best shine in aluminum I've ever seen.

Thanks. Is there any over the counter type stuff that's just as good?

I use Mother's Billet Wheel polish (the expensive stuff) on my Bogarts. Works incredible.

Mothers Incredible Billet polish rocks. Then just be sure to wax them afterwards.

Well I just bought the Mother's Billet and the Powerball. The Powerball might have saved me some time, but not $25 worth of time. The Billet stuff works awesome though.
