    Metal polishing

    I want to polish my cam cover on my car , Ive got at it with a metal polish paste and also tried brasso without that much effect , whats the best way to do this so its really shiney , do I have to use wet and dry ? Or would most metal places do if for a reasonable price ? btw it's an 8 not 16v one.
    I only realised I was dyslexic when I turned up at a toga party dressed as a goat...........

    brasso should have done the trick mate. will probably need HOURS of rubbing though, it wont shine up on a few mins

    you need to use a polising mop and the right abasive for the metal

    pluss if you want the shine to stay more than a day then i would clear coat it after you have polised it.
