I used it when I was polishing as it was recommend by a person who polishs airplanes. I found it work well for removing polish/oxidation residue. I have used since I finish polishing the Bubble to wipe down after a rain/dust storm. Seems to work OK but please understand realize I am wiping down the polished finish, not pure aluminum. I also find under some circumstances that a wet shammi, after washing does a good job. Depends on heat and kind of spots and I am still experimenting. Roy Lashway
