Tips for keeping Ali engines and other ali parts polished.

[The Voyager]

Just in the process of polishing my engine, it's going to be finished to a smooth glass like touch, how do people go about maintaining the shine?

Also what about chrome wheels?

Clear coating or just regular cleaning?

I am not sure but hopefully someone will tell us

do it the first time with elbow grease ... Then just use a polish after that .

I used wire wall to bare metal, or use a dermal or 1200-1500 sand paper lol and then keep it polished

most alloy coloured engine cases are lacquered with heat resist lacquer once you have polished the casings all yo can do is keep doing it regularly or clear coat it again

+1 on wire WOOL for the initial polish after that you have to use polish and elbow grease to keep it from oxidising.
