    I've got a polished SS radiator cover on the 02 and while cleaning it recently got some scratches in it. What can I use to get rid of them? I've tried chrome polish, mothers mag wheel polish, neverdull. There not gouges more like swirl marks.

    try 600 grit sandpaper? Thats what I use on my billet followed with a layer of mother billet and SS polish. Only other thing I can think of is to scuff it up a bit with 400 and spray a few coats of clear, then 600 the clear, next time you get a scratch it'll be paint not the metal.

    use 600 grit sandpaper, then some 2000 or so...finish it up with some mother's polish and it will shine like no other!

    I'd 2k it but no one ever has that in stock, hard enough finding 600 :p Besides I think it looks good
