Polishes
I’ve tried a few. Solvol Autosol, Peek, Belgom alu, Autoglym. They all work, some better than others, and some need a lot more elbow grease than others. I’m not a big fan of electric polishers, a bit too much on the mop and it splatters everywhere. Finally settled on White Diamond which will be familiar to readers of Old Bike Mart. It’s a two pack product so you have to go over the car twice but easy to apply, easy to buff and a mirror finish. That’ll do.

Replying to Alex. I guess it’s all down to personal choice, everyone has their own favourite polish they swear by. Any polish claiming to work on brass/aluminium should do. Cowl polishing is frequent in summer and I use Brasso wadding. If there’s the odd insect splat or tar spot that’s difficult to shift, a dab of Solvol Autosol does the trick. If your chosen polish won’t deal with the salt damage then perhaps pull the cap and take it to a polishing firm? Google “ metal polishing near me “.
