For repolishing it seems like it will work good. For a set of rims that haven't seen a speck of polish in god only knows how long it wasn't that great. Yes I bought the 10 dollar bottle of Mothers Power Polish to go with it. It shined up the spot I used it on but the rims still need some work. I think i will try it on the rims I have already hand polished and see if it shines them up any better.
