Whats the proper polishing procedure
 

I bought a buffing wheel and some polishing creme. Whats the proper way to apply and do this onto my grill? Do i just apply the creme with a rag, left it haze, and then buff it off?

What type of "polishing cream" did you buy, is it in a toothpaste tube or ??? and what is the "brand name"??? Doug

Meguiar's Medium Cut Cleaner
Meguiar's Foam Polishing Pad

Hmmm, I've never used Meguiar's before so I'm not sure about that one. Are the GMC grills aluminum also? Doug

Any rubbing/polishing compound I've ever used, it works best if you put the compound on the wheel, squirt the area to be polished with a squirt bottle of water and buff at a slow speed, adding water as needed.......the water does most of the work for you and without it, you bake the compound and it's a bear to get off and leaves blotches in your finish. If it's pitted very bad, you're in for a long haul. I spent about 12 hours polishing a set of fuel tanks for my Peterbilt when I painted it.
