I used meguiars mag&aluminum polish...the stuff that smells like big red imo....btw car will be receiving a full in depth detail here very soon....just wish she had a better paint job and that darn seat was not torn
 
So which ones are the before shots?




LOL. Looks real good! Would love to see the rest of that car.
 
sorry I dont have any actual real before and after photos of the car being detailed but hope to soon....here is a link to photos of it and some of the other cars i have owned

but yeah i hope the rims look ok...it is a pain in the arse being 6'4" 340 lbs getting down there polishing by the hand really thinking of getting a drill attachment just not sure if it is worth it

Turned out great. Really worth the effort.

Did you use any wax or protectant when you were done?
 
looks like an old dodge dart from the 60-70 era. with cragar mags classic . i use a mothers cone and it helps save time and pain on wheel polishing.
 
dave very close 71 Dodge Demon, and thanks for info on the mothers cone....and oldmodman I did not put wax on them was trying to figure out what would be good protectant for them
 
Much better! Nice demon.. what tire dressing is that? Has a perfect sheen IMO.
 
Your boredom led to excellent looking results. Next time you come down with the same affliction, you're more than welcome to do mine. :) Your efforts in doing so would not be in vain.

Good luck on the rest of this project.

its the only thing i can get shiny on this darn car....no matter what I do the original paint is always dull and or streaky appearance to it....tire dressing was meguiars endurance spray if i remember right it might have been express shine

and sure thing funx725....next time i think i will be using mothers cone thing instead of using elbow grease
 
It shows what a little time, product, and a little old fashioned elbow grease can accomplish! :props:
