all engine aluminum parts

hi, i want to know what ready made product/s to use to detail the aluminum valve cover and peri finals in the engine compartment, every thing else looks great in the compartment except the aluminum parts that have discolored and look ugly.

thanks

Try Pep Boys. Most parts stores will have some good paste polishes for Aluminum. Follow with a clear coat for a lasting finish.

I haven't tried these. I haved used Autosol that came with my Kirby vacuum. Works great. I have also used a paste from the autoparts store-I think it was made by Mothers.
