Im always the first guy to yell bullchit, when someone claims to have a miracle cleaner or polish.

By suggestion I picked up a can of Flitz metal polish, to hopefully restore the finish on my heavily oxidized aluminum tool box, my expectations were low, and I thought for sure I was going to have to bead blast this thing and go from there.

Weeel, I was pleasantly suprised:

Reminds me of a guy that stopped by the old house selling snake oil cleaner. He had Mary listening to the sales crap and had already cleaned a spot on one of our brass clad porch lights well it did shine up but one month later it rusted bad in the same spot!
BTW I threw him out while he was talking to her man was she pissed at me! Took a whole month to prove my point!

Sorry has nothing to do with your post

I know people who use it to buff boats with and they come out like brand new. I would never have imagined to use it on fiberglass but they put it on with a chip brush then buff with a wool cutting pad. A couple good coats of wax and you would think it was just painted or re-gelled.

****!! that does look good.
I need to pick some of that stuff up.

And I like your work habits in the first picture. I've been wet sanding the deck of my boat after work every night this week, and whatever area I was working on there was also a full can coolie in close proximity.

ITLLFLI just turned me on to Swipes last weekend, and now I'm loving those things too.
