anybody know of a polish or method of cleaning the aluminum timing cover.since mine is driven no matter what the weather is my cover is dirty and stained with small pits from the salt.should i use a aluminum polish with a dremel or what.let me know please.

 

Steel whool and some kind of cleaner to get it looking decent. Polish/sandpaper work if you want to make it bling....

 

I was going to purchase a powerball mini for this sort of thing. It might work for what you're trying to do.

$12.00 a bottle

closest retail location is Delaware

That stuff made a world of a difference

here are some during and after pics on my old PIAA's

 

thanks noah i owe you one.

 

Damn Noah thats awesome stuff, Im gonna get me some....

 

pictures always prove a point huh???

A bottle is good for like 2 complete polishings (sp?) of rims in as bad of shape as those piaas

 

The site is funny shows rednecks with no shirts on, and truckers, how did you hear of this stuff...

 

I called PIAA one day cause of how poorly their wheels stood up to things like dust and water...wind too.....
They refered me over to a shop that would repolish them for like $150. I called the guy and asked what he used. The rest of the story incorporates things like GOOGLE and the exchange of cash for polish...but i wont bore you with those details
