You mean axle back?

Anyway, I just sold my HKS axel back and I am shipping it out tonight. The guy I sold it to seems like a good guy so last night I went out and polished it up for him. I use Poorboy's Professional Polish and my buffing wheel with a cutting pad and the thing shines like a mirror now. It was dull with some minot scratches and now it shines like it should. That might get the little rust spots off but I am not sure, mine was not rusting.

Yeah, I use Poorboy's Professional Polish on my HKS too. I do it by hand though. I first clean it off with Spray and Wipe and then hit it up with the polish. Looks great.

Sux about your axle-back... I imagine most kinds of high buff polish work well

My Tenzo Type-2 exhaust (Tanabe Medalion) is going on 4 years old, and it's still looks awsome. Last year I took it off polished it and it took all the rust off and made it like a mirror.
