Metals polish MAAS

I saw an advert for MAAS metal polish in the Saga Magazine. I want it mainly for cleaning brass as anyone used it.

  • Hi, I bought this Polish back in the summer for use on our Classic Honda motorcycles.
    If you have done the basic cleaning of heavy rust or heavy staining, this product is brilliant leaving a classy high gloss shine.But and I'm afraid its a big But if you try using it on heavy staining or long unpolished Steel, Alloy, Brass or Copper then results are really only average. Auto S..... is better and usually cheaper.I did try hard rubbing and twice cleaning objects with good results but these results were the same with other products. As far as i'm concerned, with regular use it is a good product.

    I have been in the metal polishing business all my like. There is nothing like good old "brasso" metal cleaner for polishing brass. If you want to venture even further, pick up a celluose based clear lacquer and apply it after cleaning. Then no more polishing.
