After cleaning & polishing brushed steel or brushed aluminum it must of course retain its brushed structure, its light pattern of scratches, so always use caution on brushed metals.

Please note: Peek Polish contains a very fine abrasive, so apply it gently. Always try a polish first in an inconspicuous place!

Getting the best result when polishing brushed aluminum:

• Use a slightly moistened polishing cloth.
• Gently brush in the direction of the "grooves" of the brushed aluminum.
• Dry the surface after brushing to ensure that no traces of water and polish remain.
