fastest ever for polishing german silver

Heavy chemical and abrasives make quick work in polishing tarnished metal...especially brass and German silver. Too abrasive for silver plate.
Although abrasives are aggressive...the resulting scratches are easily removed by buffing with less aggressive silver polishing cloth...or on German silver or brass...a plain cotton cloth.
Leaves a beautiful lustrous shine....and light wax that slows future tarnishing.

My first DA polisher. The kit is awesome, polisher is great with plenty of power. I bought this along with a bottle of VSS and Butter Wet Wax for my 06 H2. 12 years of not taking care of the paint left it full of scratches. VSS cleaned it up a bit but didn't have enough cut for full removal. I gave in and tried all 4 from the sample pack, starting with V32 all the way to V38 then followed by the Butter Wet Wax. The scratches are gone completely, the paint looks like glass, the metallic shines brilliantly, and it has so much depth do it! I couldn't be happier!
The first picture you can see how badly scratches the paint is in the reflection and the second picture is after the 4 step and wax.

I make metal stamped jewelry and these polish the pieces up really nice. I also used this to clean my husband's platinum wedding band and it made it so shiny. It does not remove scratches, but really shines things up nice.

The polishing really does make a difference. And these are high quality as well. Thanks!

In the set there are 2 or 3 nylon bristle brushes and a steel brush. 3  grinding wheels. A dozen or so felt tips that fit on to another piece that is then stuck in to the machine.

This is the best piece in the entire set for polishing&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Dremel-520-Polishing-Wheel/dp/B00009OYEZ/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Dremel 520 Polishing Wheel</a>. It is a rubbing compound and buffer combined. I bought another one of theses as soon as I wore the first one out.

So if you are touching up something that has already been polished this kit is for you. If you have something that you want to polish and it is bigger than a deck of cards...then you might need more than one of these sets because none of the pieces last for a very long time.

Also, polishing takes practice. If you have never polished anything before I think it is more difficult than it looks so depending on what your going to polish you may want to practice on something of lesser value first ( I didn't and wish I did ).

Not to sound like a safty inspector but it is a good idea to wear some sort of saftey glasses, I wore reading glasses which worked good enough. However, when I was using the metal brush I got a piece of it stuck in my face, just below my nose. I didn't notice until I touched it a few hours later when my finger was on its way up to dig for gold. I thought to my self that sharp little peice of metal really hurts, I'm glad its not stuck in my bloody eye.

I don't have a Dremel,I have a&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/RotoZip-RZ01-1300-120-Volt-Spiral-Saw-Kit/dp/B000WOVCWY/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">RotoZip RZ01-1300 120 Volt Spiral Saw Kit</a>. Take care to avoid letting anything other than the polishing tip touch the piece that your polishing. It can leave a nasty mark. Then you have to start all over again on that spot which , is another reason to practice first.

One more thing. A vise that attaches to your table or work bench will come in very handy. I did a quick search on amazon and I was surprised to see how inexpensive some of them were. Definitely worth it!

I have not used it much as I rarely polish my silver anymore.  I am hoping for good results on a large silver tray.

So this stuff is extremely tough.  That is both good and bad as cutting it is rather challenging.  You cannot score and snap and you can't score and thermally stress.  Near as I can tell, it must be cut.  This worked out on the highest speed: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FJLWNK?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00 and polishing of the edges can be done with a belt grinder or the edge of the diamond wheel.

Fantastic polish for metal and plastic.  Very fine abrasive so you can polish mirror finish surfaces.  I have used on jewelry, coins, guns, even plastic headlight covers.  Flitz always does the job.

Works well on Silver where other jewelry cleaners do not, easier than using a cream on an intricate silver necklace!

This is fast and easy and really works. Great for those of us who want the wax finish and hate the chore.

I use Flitz on plastic, metal and glass as a great base polish/cleaner.  It is a bit more aggressive than some of the other polishes out there but not as aggressive as say a rubbing compound.

For severely corroded aluminum however this simply does not have enough power to get you to the polishing point - you will need to lightly scuff sand those pieces.  It does work amazingly well to remove light corrosion from unpainted aluminum wheels but you must use a powered accessory such as the Mother's Power Ball.  I do not have the Flitz version of the Mothers Power ball so I have not tested this or other polishes with that yet.

The best success I've had using the Flitz blue so far was to restore my 1970 Mustang's red plastic on the taillights.  It removed the 47 years of light oxidization and fine swirl scratches from previous owners.  I also used this to polish the lower rocker panel trim pieces on the same 1970 Ford Mustang after lightly sanding those pieces with 320 grit sandpaper.  This gave me decent results but not a deep chrome look shine so I then went over the parts with a competitor's product which produced an amazingly deep chrome like shine after the flitz blue polish - however by itself the competitor product did not perform as well.

The attached video may not have enough resolution to show you quite the difference in which case you can search you tube for the original version which I have recorded.

Mothers Billet Metal Polish is a very fine abrasive polish for aluminum and other soft metals. Billet implies wrought (rolled) aluminum bar or plate or forged aluminum shapes with a fine grain structure as opposed to a casting with a coarser grain size. Although I used it for polishing the water cooled aluminum exhaust manifold and riser castings on my jet boat.

For pitted and corroded aluminum (without anodized coating) I start by wet sanding with 3M Imperial Wetordry #1000, then #1500, then # 2000 grit sandpaper and then #2500 grit (optional) which can be obtained from the website for "Tap Plastics" > SUPPLIES & TOOLS > Plastic Tools & Supplies > 3M Imperial Sandpaper > 3M Sandpaper Single (2500) - $1.85. After this wet sanding sequence the Mother's Billet Metal Polish quickly puts a nice shine to the aluminum.

I remove the black greasy residue left by the polish with 91% rubbing (isopropyl) alcohol and a paper towel then I use a jeweler's rouge cloth for a final buff.

I used this polish on the gold plated contacts on my faulty old bilge pump switch and they looked and worked like new again. Although the label recommends not using it on gold plating because you can eventually abrade through the thin soft gold layer. It would work great on SOLID gold, platinum or silver jewelry or watch cases.

Mothers Billet Metal Polish is too fine for stainless steel or chrome (which is stated on the label). Simichrome works well on these harder metals.

I had a large length of granite from a kitchen project a contractor did earlier this year. Then we wanted to remodel one of our bathrooms. Rather than buy a new granite top/vanity or have a contractor do this, I decided to re-use the remaining material. Cutting the main top was easy, but the challenge was to get the edges finished/polished. I did a lot of research and saw this product; was a little sceptical about the whole dry polishing process. The cost of this allowed me to at least try this.
The trick here is to use a low speed tool. (DON'T USE A HIGH SPEED TOOL) I couldn't find a hand grinder with a low enough speed, so I made myself an adapter out of a 5/8-inch bolt and cut the head off and used my low speed drill which runs at 800rpm.

Doing this project and re-using my extra granite saved me almost $3000 in materials. I would recommend this product to anyone if used as described.
My bathroom is finished, looking great and I can go treat myself to something nice with the money I saved.

I own a lot of silver jewelry and I've used polishing cloths and a lot of elbow grease in the past to rub the tarnish off. I decided to try this product based on the reviews and I'm really happy that I did! I was amazed at how quickly the tarnish came off with these wipes. Seriously - much less effort than with polishing cloths. I used one wipe to polish 10 pairs of earrings and two necklaces. Another bonus - they don't smell like polishing liquid does. I am a fan and will definitely purchase more.

Very highly polished which looks a lot more like silver, but has a beautiful, barely-there weight. The high-gloss polish does scratch easily, though, so I'd recommend a matte finish for longer-lasting and less garish look.
