[Mat]

ok you may think im mad but i want to polish up the exust tails!!! ok the reason is ive done a lot of work on the car so far, thus they are manky and ming!!! ive thought about polishing but wouldnt know where to start!! the reasoning - is the car will be resprayed at some point and they will look crap!!!

Anyone any suggestions

Autosol metal polish with 0000 grade steel wool does the trick

[Mat]

thank you for your tip - one final thing, where would i get them from?

[Mr Morse]

Autosol - Halfords

0000 grade steel wool - woodworking suppliers or eBay

Happy polishing!

Thats what I use and, like Mike says it works a treat.

Autosol is in a tube and you can get it from Halfrauds :D

I used to use autosol on my Wolseley 1300 many moons ago

i find a bit of short carpet stuck onto a polishing disc/electric drill is fantastic ( beter than steel wool IMHO) - did my mates the other day for the first time in 6 years and it was like new after.

Memories! I had a Wolseley Six,used to love the lit up badge on the front chrome grill, many years before Lexus came on the market.

I also had the extremely rare wedge 2200 Wolseley (it evolved into that monstrosity known as the Austin Princess ) albeit only for a few months. Very strange to drive, unreliable as hell, couldn't see out the back, acres of room inside and almost citroen-like ride quality. The light didn't work either!!

The wife has a Xantia Activa (I'd love to compare it to a Soarer Active!!) and the ex-wifes 1st car was a chevette, and I've had various french cars (2 XMs, a BX, couple of xantias and a couple of pug 505's), and had various rover's as well (p5 and a couple of p6s) so yeah that does compare. The Rovers and the shove-it were the only ones that got polished tho :P

This is getting scary realising how many cars I've had over the years.
