Aluminum cleaning
 
I have a Steeda cold air intake and lcas that look dingy. How do I clean them best?

Mother's Mag & Aluminum polish does a great job. I've been using it on my motorcycle restoration project and it's been working pretty well. Has weak nitric acid in it that eats the oxidation so you don't have to scrub too hard.

I always use Simichrome polish. Mothers polish is good. But I think Simichrome is better.
But that is just my opinion. Buy a small tube and try it.

quality co$t on anything. The extra money will save you work on cleaning.
The results are amazing to see.
But in the end .... It's your money and your call.

Quick question. The Aluminum your cleaning is not clear coated.:salute:

I have been using Blue Magic polish. It works very well an is fairly inexpensive.
