Hey guys,
What is the best procedure for this?

Can i use brasso?
I also have turtle paste wax, novuus and 2 inch foam pads on my drill.

Do i need to invest in a buffer? Just trying to limit my costs at the moment.

I use Mother's Mag & Aluminum Wheel polish, mostly because that's what I've got in the garage

here is the original post:

since then I made a new and even better buffing machine with 12" extended shafts for mags and motorcycle covers

remember you can easily make it shine by hand or machine buffing....its the polishing that gets rid of the scratches and makes the Big difference.
