There was a link to stuff for polished aluminum wheels that I think either laser or Vibant posted. It was used by mostly motorcycle guys I remember. My TTII's are in some need of stain removal and I need to try something before I send the out to be powdercoated. :(
 
Do you mean using white rouge and tripoli with a high speed buffer? Those products will definitely help cut into the aluminum and remove most blemishes. After using them finish it up with mothers RED aluminum polish paste and finally with the mothers billet.

I used Flitz on my WELDS and it works great. I am a Mothers fan though but the Flitz is good for what you need I think.

Denova Shine is what most biker's use. I love it except it's not sold in retail stores. I buy it from a local bike shop. It's a wipe on, wipe off system. No buffing wheels or anything. A rag is all that's needed. I've never used triopli, white rouge, buffers, buffing wheels and all that stuff. Wipe on, wipe off Danielson!

Damn I'm gonna get some of that and try it. I'll go to the local Harley shop for some if they have it and report back the results, Sir. :flag:

If your doing the standard polishing on aluminum products like intakes, TB's and all that then you do the sanding then use Denova at the end. One bottle will last a real long time. I bought 4 bottles ($12 each), gave 3 away (RC has one). I need to order more.
