What polish to use on my bike frame?

[GearboxGeezer]

Hey!

I got an RS 125, and as some of you know its got them alloy frames which look really nice when polished up, problem is im not sure what polish to use, Its not shiny or anything like that at the mo so I just want the best stuff so it looks like a mirror

Anyone no any good polishes? and where u got em from? price dont really matter..

Autosol?

You'll probably need several grades or 400 years and twelve spare elbows..

Busters*, along with many other places do polishing kits, some even with drill attachments (which i'd use cause all that polishing sounds like way too much hard work)

*its so rumoured they are still a bit iffy though so probably best avoided

Mr Shine will polish a frame up so good it will look like a mirror..... right.

Maybe the only way to make my bike like that is to strip the bike apart and use a proper polishing tool ( got loads at my dads work ) just that im sure this kid on a rs 125 wouldnt of done all that just to get his frame shiny... oh my bikes an 01 model by the way, if that helps

Autosol.

Mirror finish? There's a couple of techniques. I prefer the control you get with wet'n'dry.

i couldn't find any autosol when i took a quick run to halfrauds

but i came across some autoglym polish and it actually done a pretty decent job almost as good as autosol if not the same
