can i use this to polish aluminum wheels

You should be able to since it runs on some high speeds. It's a very good buffer, I've had mine for awhile now and use it in the shop on a day to day basis and it still holds up.

I had experience polishing silver bracelets and it did an excellent job. You just have to be careful not to use too much compound and to select appropriate tool speed. Otherwise, you may damage silver or gold coating (in case jewelery is coated).

I have used it on brass, stainless steel, and copper. Have not used it on aluminum.

Yes I would. Remember, this is polish, not wax. Polish brings out the luster, wax protects the polish. Make sure you use the Mother`s gold carnuba wax, not the cleaner wax.

GreetingsI am not sure what your machined wheel is made of, however this kit will polish most materials. Of course the harder material (carbon steel, stainless steel (even harder)) these materials take a lot more time. Then there is how much you call "little". Surface rash?

Yes you can. It will clean and polish but don't use it to try to remove scratches.

I haven't tried to use it myself yet but my experience is with other kits of this sort is that should be a polishing compound to be used with the fiber polishing wheels. carefully try it as that if the need arises and my hunch is you'll find this to be the case.

Lauren. It would work well on silver and gold. I am not sure on the other three metals but people polish rocks with them so I don't see why not.

I used it to restore pinball machine metal,this machine did not last long and burned out .I bought another brand with a plastic case and a piece of metal cut through the side. I'm sure it will polish rocks but sharp edges will damage the plastic case .I would stick to one with a metal case.

As I understand it, this particular version is supposed to be hard. It's meant to be put on a polishing wheel first. You can soften it with heat and olive oil to make a paste, if that is what you are looking for.

I can not address the use on stainless steel. how ever on chrome wheels it works very well.

This polisher would work great, just use the right polish. This is a dual action polisher that gets the job done.

I would say Wenol is safe on almost any metal surface, but like all polishes, it will change the look of whatever you use it on, which may be what your goal is to start with. For instance brushed aluminum may not look quite so brushed and more glossy.

I've used mine on aluminum. There is a pad to soften the base. But as far as the tool doing a good job , it's a solid performer. Just find the right grit and matrix for the metal you're working on

Never tried it on aluminum. Works great on brass and stainless steel. Surfaces with an already polished finish should be the best option.

This brush is intended for cleaning chrome, alloy, or aluminum wheels (rims).

No, but may leave marks to be removed. Certainly, any wheel will scratch if grit is present.
