Has anyone used Mothers Powerball?

[Deeznuts]

I was wondering if anybody has had any luck polishing their tunnel with a mothers powerball. And if the big one or the little one works better. (They have one that is about 6 inches diameter and one that is about 3 inches diameter) Thanks alot.

It works good, I used it with their Powermetal polish and it was awesome. You can polish it to a mirror if you put in a bit of time on it or you can just get it a bit shiny which is what I wanted. I used the larger one, but the smaller one might be easier to do the sides of the tunnel with around the boards.

awesome product!use a polish compound with grit and go down to get the shine!

Used the larger one on my dragon last year, you still need to put some elbow grease into it! Works good though

I used the big one, but I think I am going to get the little one. The big one is too big for everything except big flat areas. I can't use it on my truck rims.

I used the small one with mothers polish then followed with Bluemajic and wipe off with a real soft buffing cloth.

have them both and they both work good . the large one works good on larger places.
and smaller in the tighter areas and better finish.

Small one on a drill, but I put the big one in a die-grinder, didn't like how hot the old Makita was getting!

Used both of them, they work awsome. still use alittle elbow grease, and a few cold ones to get the job done.

Just used the big one on the weekend. Work great! I did do some wet sanding before hand to help out.

mmmmmm....cold ones!! Thats the only reason I polish my tunnel.Gives a excuse to spend 5 or 6 hours beside the beer fridge.

I used the big one, can be a little messy, but shiney. Lot easier the old manual method.

I purchase the small power ball and was not impressed, I thing a couple of cotton buffing wheels and some solid buffing compound would be much faster. I will let you know because have given up on the power ball. This is what I am going to use, hoping it speeds up the process.

i've used the small mothers ball the last two seasons and wouldn't go away with it. The smaller one is perfect if your just doing your tunnel.

Small power ball here and good soft cloth wipe down.

I have used the small one, it works great but didn't last too long for me. By the time I was done there wasn't a whole lot left to it.

Worked good but did get pretty shredded by tunnel edges and supports. Did require alot of elbow grease to get as good of finish around areas not accessible with the wheel.

I got the smaller one, worked great have to be a bit careful on the tunnel stirups have to slow down the drill, or it shreads the ball. It only took me a couple of hours and a case of beer.

 

[woodies]

mmmmmmm beer and polish!i need to go get me some!

I use it. Get the bigger one and use the mothers polish in the squeeze bottle not the can. The stuff in the can works good too but is harder to apply to the ball.

It will take a few steps to make it shine good but after that the up keep is pretty easy
