i used it on my friends wheels, he has a 70 chevelle with the old daisy style wheels. they were really dull and thought we needed to take to a shop for polishing, but the powerball did wonders and they look great now.:D

It only worked good if you really pressed HARD!

I bought one today and used it on my Pro-stars. It was a night and day difference. I used a cored variable speed drill. My cordless wasn't up to the task; it worked great. I pulled all 4 wheels and polished them in about 1 1/2 hours. They looked great I my hands don't ache from polishing them by hand

My powerball has paid for itself many times over. I polished 2 sets of my own wheels (one set of billet 20's and a set of polished centerlines) and then a Freightliner... I pretty much tore it up on the truck but what used to take literally two days to do took about 5 hours. I wasn't really impressed with its performance on the heavily oxidized parts such as the fuel tanks and rear fenders. But the wheels and all of the chrome look great. I think its worth the money as long as you keep it clean. :)

Mine works great too. I use 3m chrome polish. It's the best I've ever found for aluminum wheels. Mine looked like chome when I was done. These are on my race car which were pretty bad. :cool:

What kind of polish are you supposed to use with the powerball. I've tried to read the package but the important information is on the inside. I'm sure they recomend mothers but I'm not impressed with their polishes.
Thanks

I use the Mother's polish that they recommend for the powerball. Sorry, I can't remember the name of it. It's in a tall, red bottle.
