i use "intimadator" aluminum polish, its made to polish semi-truck wheels, got it at the local truck shop, but it took my tunnel that i had polished 5-6 coats with mothers to a whole new level of mirrored. hands down the best stuff i have ever used. here's a link http://www.theintimidatorpropolish.com/about.html

I use flitz with a drill attachment, then finish it by hand.

I used mother alumimum polish along with several microfiber clothes. Do a small area at a time and keep repeating over and over. Once you have the desired finsh, use a carnauba wax to protect and seal the pours.

I use my 13 year old nephew. All that other stuff works good to, if you dont have a nephew.
I could probably use my nephew, or even my neice on my 95 summit or any older sled, but I'm afraid the running board edges on my 1m Cat would rip either of them to shreds.

I found a guy at a semi detailing shop to do it for $50. So this time around a pen and a check for me...

Flitz is a Flop
for that price I would also let someone els provide the labor.. good choice.
BTW anyone else find out that Flitz- really doesn't work as well as when it was demonstrated. Don't shine like the Mothers doo, and it sure clogs up that chamious ball that they were selling with a can of that goop/

You don't tear up the ball on the punch outs. I have been using terry cloth buffing wheels and balls and the fabrick just shreds off.

Damn Sawyer, that is the sweetest pic! The sled looks great.
