Default RE: Polishing an aluminum spinner

I always take my tru-turn spinners and polish them either with Flitz and a old golf shirt...paper towels just do not work.... As one stated you started out with to coarse of grit... I polish leading edges ( bright work) on multi million dollar corporate jets and if i have to remove scratches , start at 1000 and go to 2500 , then on to paste and then hand buff. Don't use a power buffer that often and you have to watch out for static build up.

For quick cleaning and polishing we use on the plane http://www.zephyrpro40.com/s2/Script...?idCategory=77 this product works so good we only do a complete break down of the leading edges once every 6 months.

It also works great on the RC spinner...
