X-treem aluminum polish/cleaner

I just ordered and new conainer this morning. They also make a sealer that goew with this stuff now. I could never decide which was better. California Customs Purple or Xtreem. Both are easy to use and work better than anything else I have used. (I have used Mothers and will say if will give you a good shice but takes forever. I am lazy. It also gives me more time to work on other parts of the truck.)

One advantage of the Xtreem is that it is one part while the CC is really at two part deal. If your wheels are nice you don't really need the green.

Re: X-treem aluminum polish/cleaner

Mike I polish my wheeels maybe twice a year. They stay nice looking and it only takes about 10 minutes per wheel. They have a better shine than new ones and these are about 13 yrs old.

As far as pushing and selling your product you need to read up on the vender rules. If your product is as good as you say I am sure you will find a lot of interest here.

Looks like you moved forward with your business deal. Congrats on the purchase. Let me know when you are ready to get set up here. I am working on August specials right now, so we could get you in on that if you want...

Re: X-treem aluminum polish/cleaner

Wow! What a difference. Never thought that much of Mother's products anyway. I've been using Duragloss Aluminum Polish which is probably another "Grinder Formula".

Re: X-treem aluminum polish/cleaner

That is quite the difference on the product comparison.
