| any brand of mag/aluminum wheel polish. read instructions and do what they say. don't bother doing the "lower" section of the frame which is rough, because it doesn't polish unless you sand it down to smooth like the upper section, and it's 199134 hours of work and it's not worth it.

| The easiest and best looking way to do it is to use a DA sander with 400 then 600 then 1000 and finally 1500 sand paper, the larger number grit paper you use means less sand scratches in the metal, then use can use mothers or any other billet aluminum polish but to really bring the shine out you need to use a multi speed buffing wheel. Dont expect the shine to last forever it will oxidize so if you want to keep the shine lasting you will need to clear coat your frame(and not walmart spray can clear).
