    Default metal polish recommendation

    can anyone recommend me some metal polish to remove imperfections from blades?

    I bought a few old razor that need to be cleaned and can't find any Maas metal polish here in Australia. the only place that sells them is out of stock and closing down, so it doesn't like like I will be able to get some from there in the future.

    Thanks

    Mother's Aluminum and mag polish, found at Walmart for example.
    I think any fine metal polish not rubbing compound will work, check your local car parts stores.

    I use SIMICHROME (from Germany) but I notice that quite a few here use Maas :-) I have to order it off of the internet but one- 1.76 oz. tube will last me 10 yrs

    "Flitz" (a liquid polish) is another alternative. It's very gentle.

    Check your local auto-body shops; they should know what's available.

    Hi,

    Solvol Autosol is also a good polish.

    Silica containing toothpastes are good for polishing, though they are quite mild

    Have fun !

    Best regards
