Default Polishing aluminum

Well with alot of help from my Buddy helping me cut out my Comptech cai so i can put my Cusco stb on we finally got it to fit. yea. But when i went to go wipe all the fingerprint on it they just smudged and smeared so it's cloudy instead of shiny I wads thinking about just using some regular car polish either my Menzernsa final polish 2 or my old Meguires polish. But not sure if this will help or make it worse. any suggestions????????

i would not use a polish for your situation... much too harsh

a detailers spray, or just a damp rag with car shampoo (rinse and dry after) will likely get it.

i like a product called thor on stainless too, but there are several other stainless or chrome cleaners out there... but as above, my first try would be a detailers spray- and second car shampoo. be sure to put some protective wax/synthetic over it after you get it cleaned up (zaino would be a good choice here)

So will Meguiar's Quik-Detailer sprayed on a cotton terry towel and then a coat of Menzerna fmj be good. I just don't wan't to tarnish or dull the finish.
