If you want a softer mirrorlike finish, the lazy man's method is to go to the grocery store, buy some Scotch brite green scrubbies, and attack the nasty aluminum. Scrub away, just like your wife had burned the tomato soup in a pan. Get it looking nice and clean and bright. At this point it is no where near mirror like, and you are cursing your gullibility. Finish off with Autosol. It is truely amazing how nice it will look. This can be done with the parts on the bike and involves mostly elbow grease. Eric Lamberts ew-@unr.edu Entropy fighter.
