Metal polishing kits

Kits made in our UK workshop, from quick drill-mounted sets to angle grinder kits for bigger jobs. Each one steps you from cleaning to a final polish.

Choose the right kit for your metal

  • Copper and brass: soft metals that polish quickly. Use the copper, brass or non-ferrous kit.
  • Aluminium: alloy wheels, engine parts and trim. The aluminium or non-ferrous kit removes oxidation and brings up a bright finish.
  • Steel, stainless and iron: use the steel or ferrous kit, and keep its mops for steel only.
  • Chrome: chrome plating is thin, so polish it gently with the chrome kit and never use a coarse abrasive.

How the kits work

Each kit steps from a cleaning or cutting stage to a soft mop and polishing compound. Fit the mandrel into your drill, work at a steady speed, and move to the next stage once the surface looks even. Clean off grease with warm soapy water before you start.

Common questions

Yes. The drill-mounted kits come with a mandrel that fits a standard household drill or cordless driver. A variable speed drill gives you the most control.

Mops and compounds pick up particles from the metal you polish. Using the same mop on steel and then on copper or brass can leave dark marks, so we keep them separate.

Polishing removes tarnish, oxidation and light scratches. Deep scratches need an abrasive stage first, such as an abrasive nylon mop or Micro-Mesh MX, before you polish.
