PeteJ Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Not sure the powders are available any more. There have been several, but none of them lasted on the market very long. They seem to be either toxic or flammable or both. Pure speculation but I suspect that they are aluminum powder based which is actually quite dangerous to your health and wellbeing. Most of us use either Bare Metal Foil or paints(Alclad being one of the brands). There are also aftermarket plating services. A little research on Youtube will give you several tutorials on how to use either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noelsmith Posted November 1, 2021 Report Share Posted November 1, 2021 (edited) I realise this is an old thread but here goes. C1 polishing powder is one that I can think of. There was another by S&J I think that was polished aluminium. AK are now making tube based polishing compounds for metallic finishes.
