OTC Metal polishing- Mothers metal polish

[Orinda Auto Detail]

So I love my BF metal polish but I was put in a situation where it was at the wrong shop so I had to go buy some OTC. I picked mothers mag and aluminum here's the results I got.

Here's some wheels I was doing

The shine was increased a lot but I couldn't get some of the scratches out and I think I could of with BF. But It did a good enough job as this was a customer good will because he spent a ton of money on a sound system I did for him. So I did a quicky detail on the car for him.

How's that for a motor?

Blingy! The polished worked well here to make everything very shiny but agian it wasn't great at removing scratches.

Thanks for looking!

I haven't used that one but I always have a jar of Billet Metal Polish in my cabinet.

I haven't tried BF but I want to

A finer (less aggressive) polish will not remove scratches.

What are you using for the applicator, and towels to remove the residue?

Would have been a good place to use a powerball mini. I'm tellin ya you need to get one.

I was using a powerball to apply it and an MF towel to get remove residue

That's a decent OTC metal polish, but with all the aluminum polishing I've done on Harleys. Semi chrome has been my go to for the most part. The second is PB Pro-polish two.
