Alum grill cleaning

So i havent contributed much here and i came across something i think worked good and wanted to share. I recently bought a plating kit to redo some bolts. It came with something called Autosol Metal polish. I tried it on a spare alum bezel i had and it came out good. So i decided to go ahead and do my grill and the bezels. My grill wasn't too bad to start with and this stuff made it look pretty good. It didnt come with any instructions and all i did was put some on a lint free rag and just polish it. Not hard at all took like 2 hours. My grill is a driver quality anyhow and now it looks a little better. Heres a few pics. I used gloves to keep my fingers from soaking up the polish. It has a smell of maybe mineral spirits. It dries like wax a little and then i used a clean rag to wipe any leftover residue. Simichrome polish might be similar, not sure i dont have any of that stuff. Check it out.
