Hey guys I want to try to polish my dad's grill. I almost done setting up my detail stuff at my new house. I have the flex 3401, 3403, PC, and the rupes long.

Can you help me understand how to polish alumium?

I haven't used that kit, but the general principle of using decreasingly less abrasive products applies, and is laid out in the descriptions on the product page. What exactly are you trying to polish?

Step 1: Wolfgang MetallWerk™ Aluminum Compound
Wolfgang MetallWerk™ Aluminum Compound is a strong aluminum prepolish that powers through oxidation and discoloration on aluminum to create a smooth, uniform finish. This is step one of a three part restoration process that results in a high impact, incredibly reflective shine on aluminum trailers, wheels, trim, boats, aircraft, and more.

Wolfgang MetallWerk™ Fine Aluminum Polish
Step 2: Wolfgang MetallWerk™ Fine Aluminum Polish
Wolfgang MetallWerk™ Fine Aluminum Polish is an incredible metal cleaner and gloss-enhancing polish to remove light imperfections on uncoated aluminum and other polishable metals. Ultra fine abrasives restore a brilliant, like-new shine on bare metals, chrome, and stainless steel. For automotive metals, Wolfgang MetallWerk™ Fine Aluminum Polish is the best all around metal polish to restore a bright, metallic gloss.

Wolfgang MetallWerk™ Concours Aluminum Polish
Step 3: Wolfgang MetallWerk™ Concours Aluminum Polish
Wolfgang MetallWerk™ Concours Aluminum Polish achieves the maximum level of shine possible on aluminum, chrome, stainless steel, and bare metals. As the last step of the Wolfgang metal polishing system, Concours Aluminum Polish creates a brilliant, mirror finish that is sure to draw attention.

Wolfgang MetallWerk™ Concours Metal Sealant
Step 4: Wolfgang MetallWerk™ Concours Metal Sealant
Once you’ve achieved a mirror-like gloss, seal and protect polished metal surfaces with Wolfgang MetallWerk™ Concours Metal Sealant. This acrylic metal sealant eliminates polish residue for a cleaner, clearer shine that lasts. This sealant forms a top coat over all types of metal that blocks out moisture and air so it cannot change the surface of the metal. Metal surfaces remain clean, polished, and mirror-bright for months.

A photo of the grill would make it easier to understand what you're trying to accomplish. Maybe this article will help. Different products, but the same concept.

Are you sure it's an aluminum grill? Almost all grills today are plastic, either painted or PVD.

That's the main reason I was asking for more details. I'd hate to see something bad come of the effort.
 
It could be stainless or pot metal if it`s an old grill.Year of car and pics. or you can`t get the correct help.
 
Ok I'll take a picture when I get back home

Tada the grill. I was going to do a test spot by hand but it's really dark and I'm tired at the moment.

That would be awesome, I can took burgers with the car 😂
I already use a PC to clean the tile at the gold house. 😂😂

Sorry I didn't explain myself that well when I started this thread.

I think that's stainless steel, not aluminum. I'm not sure how well the Wolfgang kit will work on brushed stainless. Either way, it looks like some soak time with a strong degreaser, scrub down with a brush, and pressure washing would be a good first step.
