Cleaning and brightening stainless steel gun finishes
On occasion we hear of inquiries concerning the question of brightening the finish of stainless steel guns etc. This is a post from GunBoards.com from 2008. It compares one users opinion about a number of popular metal polishes for this purpose.
“The most often used polishes for stainless guns are:
Simichrome polish:

This is available MANY places, online and locally.
Flitz. Usually more often recommended then Simichrome due to it’s finer abrasive:

Again, available MANY places online and local.
Mother’s Mag. Available in most automotive and motorcycle shops and often at Wal-Mart.
This is one of the most often recommended.
MAAS:
Online and locally.
Truth is most any good grade metal polish recommended for stainless will do.
Just be careful not to over do it, since this will make the metal too shiny.
If what you want is a bright polish job, get the Mother’s Mag.
When using ANY metal polish on guns with finishes other than stainless steel, be careful. ALL metal polishes are abrasive, no matter WHAT they may say.
Use too often or too hard, and these will all strip bluing and other gun finishes off.
While they will also polish plastic, you may not want a shiny, slick polymer frame.
So, for a bright, high mirror-like shine, use Mother’s Mag, for ordinary use, Flitz is milder.

Polishing aluminum and chrome bicycle components with Simichrome polish
If you have any bicycle, whether it is vintage or brand new, you want to keep it good looking. Just a simple application of Simichrome polish will make a dramatic difference. Recently we received this comment from a customer. His years of using Simichrome is a statement of just how good this polish is.

” I have been using Simichrome for over 30 years to polish the natural aluminum and chrome components on my bicycles. Most of them are now considered collector’s items, but when I was racing the 1970’s almost all bicycles had many parts such as hubs, rims, and seat posts that required polishing to look nice. I’ ll attach a photo that gives you an idea of how I use this excellent product.”
If you can not find Happich Simichrome polish, you can buy it online from WinterBrookFarmAntiques.com They also handle other brands of metal polishes & waxes and can help with any questions you may have.

Polish Guy Tip : ” Simichrome polish leaves a slight film behind that retards corrosion and lenghthens the time needed between re-polishing. “ |
