Default how should I clean my polished Radix?

what works best for polished aluminum? There are too many nooks and crannies to actually polish or put a coat of something on it, but something like a spray that would shine and clean 'er up would be nice...

Take a trip to your local Honda Motorcycle shop and pick up a can of the quick detail spray in an aerosol can. It is very good stuff. I use it to detail my truck and such....


I know its a very different thing but, it will work. Give it a shot.

Take it off, send it to me, and I'll polish it for you. Just can't guarantee how long it will take for me to "polish" it. :lol

Seriously, Wenol is some AWESOME stuff. I've been using it for close to 10 years I believe. You might want to check into getting some sort of aluminum polishing kit w/ buffers that you can put on a drill motor. That would really help get in between those fins.

Scream you beat me to it!

First thing I thought of when I read the title was to send it to me and I will polish for free with a 1 yr lead time!
