re: polishing rocker covers .. i managed to get a shiny result on aluminium rocker covers .. ( motorcycle ) .. using very fine abrasive polishing pads .. can't remember the brand name .. they were a rubber like material .. came in blue colour blocks .. worked a treat .. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 'n this stuff works well too .. including easing screws into hardwood .. http://www.burtsbees.co.uk/natural-products/body-hand-care/hand-salve.html gave some to friends and neighbours .. one lass uses it on her face .. another lass cut herself cut her hand whislt gardening .. said the wound healed very fast after using the hand salve a buddy was having seriously aching feet from work .. used the salve on his feet .. was goodbye aches 'n pains ..
