I use Nevr-Dull as an excellent first step..., posted on November 6, 2014 at 04:47:25

To remove the oxidation from the (non-chromed) parts of the motor of my old Harley. It's astounding how black the wadding turns as you use it. However, no matter how many times I'd go over the metal, it still didn't have the shine I wanted.

As a finish step, I started using Mothers Mag and Aluminum polish, which really brings out the luster of the aluminum.

I suppose it all depends on how much glint you desire on your platter. With my Roksan Xerxes X aluminum platter, I'm content to wipe the edge with alcohol to remove the fingerprints.

I think I hear a FrankenLinn's platter calling for attention..., posted on November 6, 2014 at 05:51:48

I've found Never Dull to be a fabulous product for cleaning and shining my antique pocket watches, the brass parts of knives, old coins, etc. Basically, it is great for any non-ferrous metal.

I love that it is non-abrasive and won't harm rare/precious items. It also works well on rings. One must take care to clean the items well after using the never dull though. I generally use 100%, non dyed cotton.

I had never thought to use Never Dull on my turn table. Thanks for the great tip!

Works amazingly well, even if I think my hands are going to grow some sort of disease from the smell afterwards... Jim J.

Thanks, I will look for Mother's as a final step. nt, posted on November 14, 2014 at 16:33:38
