I love my Mothers

She always does JUST the trick to bring the dullest vacuums back into their prime. I got this Kirby today from work, and it was an oxidated wreck. Well a little Mothers Aluminum Polish, some steel wool, and a lot of elbow grease was all it took to give it the shine it deserves. I slapped a double-row brushroll in it, and had a blast waltzing it through the house. Heres a pic! Sorry it's a bit dark....

Is it a really fine grade steel wool that you use? I would think that would make it all scritchy-scratchy, but it sure looks beautiful! I used to have one very similar to that. I do agree that Mothers is a good product, I've had it before.

0000....

A vacuum friend (FRED) gave me thorough instructions on how to polish vacuums. Yes, I would have thought that the steel wool would scratch it too, but it doesn't. It just makes it shine beautifully (along with mothers). I'm gonna do my Dual 80 tomorrow!

You have to use the finest steel wool available. That is Quad-Zero.
