Default More buffing stuff
Well as you know I did the rims which came out nice.



So I tried the sill plates but they did not come out since they are brushed aluminum. Next was the aluminum T-Bar.



Can even see the shine from far away.

Use a buffer? Man if I think of all those things I replaced that I could have buffed out. What a waste of money.
