Default Fanblade Help

I just purchased a set of fanblades. They could use alittle more shine. What should I use to polish them? Thanks.

well I would use any kind of metal polish.
But you know that.

Some of my recommendations are:

I forget what its called but Its blue wheel polish, the stuff is amazing

and the other great one is called zorbitol or something similar. In a blue bottle. Pretty easy to find at any car store.


Basically, any wheel polish

Just wash them clay them and give them a polish and a coat of wax to seal it and make it easier in future. No point using metal polish on rims which are painted anyway. Use the same polishes as you would on your car the paint is fairly similar so the same applies generally. But get a few layers of wax on there for protection as brake dust can sometimes be a bit of a bugger to get off.
