Reformulated Metal Polish vs Metal Polish #2

[Reichler]

I can't find a true straight answer on this. Is the reformulated Metal Polish as effective and produce the same shine as the old Metal Polish #2?

 

My new set of CCW wheels should be here tomorrow and want to make sure I use the best polish I can find on them. I ordered a bottle of the new Metal Polish and want to know if this will give me the same shine as the guys who were lucky enough to have the old #2.

Hmm, I'm seeing quite a few people who swear applying the polish with a latex glove and working it by hand works best on polished aluminum wheels. These guys happen to own CCW wheels as well.

I polish them using a latex glove.

 

Do not polish your CCWs with microfiber towels.

 

This is a direct quote from a guy with CCW's on ls1gto. He polishes them with a bare latex glove then removes the polish residue with a top quality microfiber.

The new Metal Polish isn't nearly as good as Metal #2.

 

Threw a whole bottle away.

 

Stocked up on 7 bottles of Metal #2.

 

Only thing that touches my wheels.

Yeah that's what I was thinking but have been beyond confused by reading this. Say we put that latex glove theory to bed. What about a microfiber cloth vs any of the hex applicators? I have all of the older style applicators plus a few new Americana applicators. I'd assume either as you stated the blue applicator (or even maybe a yellow?) would work better than a microfiber since it won't tend to soak up the polish as much? Would an Americana applicator be even better?

If you're removing with a microfiber there is absolutely no more risk on the application side... its not like the towel magically changes composition before and after use LOL.

Charlie if you use this method, be sure to give us a update on how well it worked!

 

Ha. I just checked and you even posted in the one thread I found:

Thanks Chris! I'm assuming that the people stating that #2 is unbeatable have just not tried the newly reformulated polish yet?

 

I'll be interested to see if this polish brings out any more shine than how they come directly out of the box from CCW.

 

EDIT: Awesome thanks Dylan.

Anytime Charlie!

You don't apply polish with a latex glove, you wear a latex glove to keep from getting black polish residue embedded under your finger nails.

 

Personally I've been using the blue side of the flip pad to polish metal lately and really like that.

[Reichler]

Gotcha. What do you think about applying the polish with a latex glove vs a microfiber applicator?

[Team Adam's]

I think a lot of people assume b/c the process was more complicated it must be better.

Yes. I used 1 & 2 extensively and obviously have used the new version extensively... as far as what can be achieved I would say they are equal. The same basic components that comprised 1 & 2 are all in the newest formula.

[Chris@Adams]

Yea Charlie the New Metal Polish will give you the same results as the old #1 & #2 MP, with less work and steps! IMHO! Post up some pics when done!

Check it out!

Adam's Metal Polish was reformulated to be a stand alone, one-step Metal Polish. Using the same jeweler's rouge that we used in the #2, our new Adam's Metal Polish brings the same amount of gloss to brass, billet, stainless, chrome, and nickel.

 

Adam's Metal Polish is a pure liquid formula, does not scratch and is safe to use on delicate metals. Guaranteed 110% to outshine any Metal Polish!

 

New 4oz size or 16oz Available!
