has anyone used this? was checking it out and it was like 13.99 at autozone. obvisouly the label hypes the product up and says its the best out and will allow a full refund if not satisfied. Can this stuff be that much better than the aluminum and mag polish from Mothers thats like 4$ for the smaller size tub.

Depends on what you need to do . . .

I have:

Meguiar's NXT Metal Polysh
Eagle One Nevr Dull
Eagle One Nano Polish

I find a use for all three of them on my tips . . .

If you want the most "cut" so you can polish a neglected piece or polish an unpolished piece, I really like the NXT stuff. I use Nevr Dull to clean and Nano Polish to restore and protect. I think the NXT was the most expensive @$7

Nanopolish for $5 works really well.

Or . . . I'd suggest buying some Wenol (absolute best for lips IMO)

I have used it, got it for free from a rep. :) It is really good stuff. Great at polishing as a final step, but it will not get water spots off my charger. I don't think it is aggressive enough for that job. Also, it doesn't store well. After a year it was unusable even though it was sealed.

I've got a tub, got it with the Kinesis wheels I used to have. If you want to drive out to weedsport I'll give it to you (I've got nothing billet...)
