djh Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 I have several components that have been lying in the garage for years and now look a bit dull. What is the best way to polish them, without damaging or corroding them? The parts include cranksets, brake calipers and derailleurs.
Mojoman Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 I used to use an metal polish called Autosol on my motorbike sparkly bits, maybe that would work? Buy it at Midas.
gummibear Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Builders wharehouse did a paste and polish cloth that fitted onto a drill.That worked quite well when i did some stuff a while back.
AndreZA Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 alot of parts have a clear coat over them to protect them from tarnishing. You can't polish them without removing the clear coat. Then you will have to continue to polish them to keep them shiny.
