Does anyone here have any experience with Eagle One Never Dull? I'm doing an original restore of my Anton & Jackson 8/8 and no stores near me sell Maas. Any experience info would be great.

I have used it. It is not very aggressive. I use it for cleaning but not actual polishing. It seems to work pretty well on softer substrates like aluminum.
It's been a waste of my money. I even tried the Never Dull on other stuff besides razors hoping it will blow me away but sadly enough I ended up tossing the cans I bought.
+1. It has a chemical odor, feels like it leaves residue on my fingers. I use it on this and that but would be rubbing a long time to get rid of any corrosion. It is useful on cleaning the oxidation off of a silver band on a tobacco pipe and stuff like that.Quote:

Not effective at removing rust but will clean the surface.
A bit of gentle rubbing with 0000 steel wool with a drop of oil on the blade surface, to avoid scratches, is good in some cases. Just IME.
It has zero abrasiveness,is made for non-ferrous metals.Makes magnesium look like mirror.
My neighbor had some he let me try. I used it on the brass bullseye washers and they shine like new. then I tried it on the blade and it cleaned a little patina from the blade, which is all I wanted to do there. I don't think I'll be buying any unless I aquire alot of brass I need to polish.
Thank you for all of the info
Never Dull is great on brass. I used so much of it in the military, I should have company stock under my name , somewhere.:shrug:
If I want abrasive qualities when using it, I dab some Brasso on it to get it damp & smear a red jeweler's rouge stick in the damp area. The 3 of them together work good.
+1 on the brass. Never Dull and Brasso were standards in the USMC. As far as razor polish, though, i wouldn't recommend it. makes brass shine, though, :)Quote:

After searching for something that will work well on razors I went to an auto detailing shop near me and explained what I was looking for and the suggested Wicked metal polish. They used to Cary maas and stopped because wicked is supposedly better on all metals. It does run a bit on the high priced side but I was pleasantly surprised with how it works. It cuts fast and polishes very easily with minimal effort.
I'm sorry to join in so late!
While I’ve never used the product in question, I can highly recommend MASS and Mothers Mag Wheel Polish!
I started with the MASS but upon a recommendation about the Mothers I tried it!
What I’ve found is that the Mothers works faster and is less expensive but doesn’t ‘seem’ to leave as nice of a finish. So I use it at the start and finish with the MASS.
NOTE: What ever you use, it only takes a Very Small Amount don't over do it!
While it may sound silly, try starting the polishing with either of them or the polish of your choice with well crumpled newspaper! The paper itself and the ink have abrasive qualities plus it is usually on hand!
NOTE: Just because the paper is turning black doesn’t mean that the polish isn’t still working!! Use a clean section and keep on working! This will save you money on buying polish! You will ‘eventually’ need some more of the polish.
I then go to an old T-shirt piece. Repeat what I said about the black forming!
While you can wipe off the polish with a rag to check your progress to actually see where you are at, I’ve found it best to use a little liquid dishwasher soap on the blade and then thoroughly rinse off the blade and then dry with a towel as the polishes seem to leave a slight residue that blocks the actual progress!!
I hope this has been of some help!! :shrug:
