That's where the \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE MetalPolish\u003c\/strong\u003e comes in: a high-gloss polish with a medium cut that uses quality abrasive minerals to take tarnish and oxide layers down gently and expose the mirror-bright surface underneath.

That saves you a step compared with two-stage systems, where you cut first and then have to come back with a pure finisher — with the PROFILINE MetalPolish the cutting and finishing phases are rolled into one pass.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote class=\"praxistipp\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDay-to-day from Detailing1:\u003c\/strong\u003e For the best results, clean and dry the metal properly before you polish — dirt particles sitting on the surface cut deeper scratches than the abrasive in the polish ever does. Lay the MetalPolish onto a clean, soft cotton cloth or polishing pad and work in small sections with round, overlapping passes. Don't go too thin — the paste should stay visible on the surface until it sets up and goes slightly cloudy. Then buff it off with a clean cloth and check what you've got. Heavily tarnished areas may need a second pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMedium-cut metal polish — how the medium cut actually works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA metal polish works through controlled micro-abrasion: fine abrasive grains in the paste take down the top layer of oxidation, tarnish and micro-scratches while smoothing the metal underneath. The finer the grain, the higher the gloss you can reach, but the longer the working time on badly damaged surfaces. The medium cut of the \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE MetalPolish\u003c\/strong\u003e is a deliberate compromise: strong enough to pull off clear tarnish and moderate oxide layers in one pass, fine enough to lay down a high-gloss finish right away, with no separate finishing step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe abrasive minerals in the formula are picked to work gently on metal and not to remove excessive material. That matters most on thinly plated chrome or coated aluminium: an abrasive that is too aggressive can work straight through the protective layer and expose the base material underneath, which speeds up corrosion. The medium abrasion of the MetalPolish keeps that risk at a controlled level and is matched to the typical thickness of chrome and aluminium plating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is an important conceptual difference to paint polishes like the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-perfectfinish-finish-politur\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE PerfectFinish\u003c\/a\u003e: paint polishes are formulated for organic polymer layers (clear coat), metal polishes for inorganic metal surfaces. The abrasive grains are chosen differently, and the carrier paste is matched to how metal grips and conducts heat. These products aren't interchangeable — a paint polish on metal won't give you optimal results, and a metal polish on clear coat can leave scratches depending on how hard the abrasive is. So use the MetalPolish only on bare, unpainted metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter polishing — once the product you laid down has hazed over and been buffed off with the cloth — the MetalPolish leaves no annoying oily film or residue. The metal comes out fresh, bright and grippy. An optional follow-up seal with a metal protectant or a wax film stretches out how long it takes to tarnish again, and it is well worth it on exterior chrome trim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing metal polish properly — step by step for maximum shine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSONAX PROFILINE MetalPolish\u003c\/strong\u003e works by hand as well as on a rotary machine. By hand: put a hazelnut-sized blob of polish onto a clean cotton cloth, a polishing towel or a soft polishing block. Spread it over the metal in circles or straight lines — not too fast, with even pressure, in small sections of about 20×20 cm. Let the polish sit until it has dried slightly and looks milky-cloudy (typically 30–60 seconds at room temperature), then buff it off with a clean, dry cotton cloth. The result shows immediately: the cloudy residue holds the dissolved oxide and the dirt you have just taken off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a machine (rotary or dual action): pick a pad that suits your machine — for the MetalPolish a medium-firm polishing pad or a cotton polishing disc does the job. Keep the speed low (rotary: about 1000–1500 rpm, DA: setting 3–4) and move evenly across the surface. Machine polishing on metal saves a lot of time and the mechanical pressure gives you more even results than hand polishing, but it takes a bit more practice to avoid overheating edges and corners. After the machine pass, buff off the same way you would by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeavily tarnished or deeply oxidised surfaces may need a second pass. Important: after each pass, check with a clean cloth whether you have hit the result you want before you set up more polishing rounds — over-polishing takes off material for nothing without improving the finish any further.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMetal polish applications — where the MetalPolish hits hardest\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MetalPolish shows its strength anywhere polished metal has gone dull and tired from the weather. On the car: chrome trim, aluminium wheel lips, stainless steel sills, exhaust tips and systems (always work on cold parts!), motorcycle headers, aluminium engine covers and motorsport parts in polished aluminium or titanium. The results are most striking on exhaust systems, which develop the typical tarnish colours under heat — blue, golden brown, purple. In many cases a metal polish takes them off completely or nearly so and gives the exhaust its original metal finish back. On titanium components (racing, high-performance exhausts) the tarnish colours often count as a feature — so think it through before you polish and decide whether you really want the original finish or whether the colours should stay on purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith alloy wheels you need to make one important distinction: bare, uncoated aluminium wheels (rare, but common in the classic-car and motorsport world) can be worked directly with metal polish. Standard new and used car wheels, on the other hand, carry a clear coat or are anodised — keep metal polish off those, because the abrasion attacks the clear coat. The right approach on painted wheels is a paint polish, not a metal polish. If in doubt: test a tiny patch somewhere out of sight before you take on the whole wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAway from the car the MetalPolish is just as capable: boat fittings and propellers in brass or stainless steel, stainless railings and handrails, polished brass fittings, historic pieces in silver or bronze, kitchenware in polished stainless steel. Where it runs out of road is painted or anodised metal — those protective layers shouldn't be mechanically polished. Anodised alloy wheels or powder-coated parts are therefore not suitable jobs for a metal polish, whichever product you use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMetal polish compared — PROFILINE MetalPolish vs. XTREME MetalPolish and alternatives\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are two metal polishes in the SONAX range: the PROFILINE version and the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-xtreme-metalpolish-metallpolitur\"\u003eSONAX XTREME MetalPolish\u003c\/a\u003e. Both take tarnish and oxidation off metal, but they differ in pack size and positioning. The XTREME MetalPolish (150 ml tube) is aimed at hobby detailers and occasional users who prefer a handy pack size for smaller jobs and one-offs. The PROFILINE MetalPolish (250 ml) is built for regular users and businesses who polish more often and want to keep a slightly bigger amount on the shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn terms of content, both products use comparable abrasive minerals for the medium cut — the real difference sits less in how they work than in size and positioning: PROFILINE is the pro line for regular use, XTREME the consumer pack for home use. If you work in a business or regularly detail motorcycles, cars or boats, you grab the PROFILINE; if you polish up your wheels or your exhaust now and then, the XTREME MetalPolish serves you just as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor special jobs it is worth a look at the rest of the SONAX PROFILINE range: the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/sonax-profiline-glasspolish-glaspolitur\"\u003eSONAX PROFILINE GlassPolish\u003c\/a\u003e is built for glass — scratches and water spots in windscreens or rear windows — and works with cerium oxide abrasive technology on a completely different class of material than the MetalPolish.

The 250 ml tube goes a long way — one full exhaust system, a whole motorcycle, several pieces of chrome trim — and its medium cut gives you maximum flexibility: from the occasional exhaust refresh to systematically working through a complete vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlongside the polish, a set of good cotton cloths or polishing applicators is worth having for even results when you work by hand. Important: don't use microfibre towels to buff bright polished metal — microfibre loops can leave fine scratches on high-gloss metal that you simply don't get with cotton. For machine polishing, cotton polishing discs or medium-soft foam pads are the right call.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want a lasting protective layer after polishing that clearly slows down fresh tarnish, plan a metal-sealing step after the MetalPolish: a thin wax film, a metal protectant oil or in some cases a ceramic coating can stretch the life of that polished look from a few weeks to several months, especially on exterior parts that take the weather. It pays off most on exhaust systems you have put real work into and on motorcycle chrome, where you want the result to last as long as possible. For hobby detailers who polish the odd metal part now and then, the PROFILINE MetalPolish in the 250 ml tube will last many years — the tube goes a long way and the product keeps indefinitely if you store it properly (cool, dry, closed).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SONAX","offers":[{"title":"250ml","offer_id":53502874386767,"sku":"D1-SNX-02041410","price":19.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2x 250ml set","offer_id":53506187526479,"sku":"D1-SNX-2041410_2","price":38.98,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"3x 250ml set","offer_id":53506187559247,"sku":"D1-SNX-2041410_3","price":58.47,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/sonax-profiline-metalpolish-metallpolitur.png?v=1730405721"},{"product_id":"dr-wack-p21s-metall-alu-polish-metallpolitur","title":"P21S \"Metall-\/ Alu-Polish\" Metal Polish","description":"\u003ch2 class=\"p1\"\u003eDr. Wack P21S Metall- \/ Alu-Polish – mirror shine \u0026amp; protection for every metal surface\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eHow does Dr. Wack P21S Metall-\/Alu-Polish work? \u003c\/i\u003eIt cleans, polishes and protects metal like alloy, chrome or stainless steel in one pass, pulls off oxidation and holds a lasting mirror shine without scratching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDr. Wack P21S Metall-\/Alu-Polish\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e is the pro-grade metal polish for every unpainted and painted, non-anodised metal part on your car – wheels, exhaust tips, trim strips or engine parts.

For aluminium wheels: always pull brake dust and road grime off with a wheel cleaner before the Metal Polish — grit trapped in the polish will drag extra scratches across the alloy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich metals on the car benefit from Meguiar's Metal Polish — the main jobs at a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChrome is the classic job for metal polish on a car. Chrome trim, chrome bumpers (on classics and youngtimers), chrome door handles and chrome window surrounds lose their signature mirror shine to moisture, salt and UV. Limescale spots, rust flecks and dull oxidation layers bury the original gloss. Meguiar's Metal Polish strips those layers off and brings the chrome mirror shine back. A well-kept chrome bumper or a flawless strip of chrome trim is the visual highlight of any classic — and with the right metal polish and regular care it stays that way for good.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAluminium is everywhere on a modern car: alloy wheels, motorsport parts, bolt-on bits and polished aluminium trim inside the cabin. Aluminium oxidises fast in the air and forms a matt, grey-white oxidation layer that hides the metallic shine completely. On polished aluminium, brake dust also leaves stubborn spots that are hard to shift without a polish. Meguiar's Metal Polish dissolves the oxidation and the brake dust and gets the clean aluminium shining again. On badly oxidised aluminium we'd suggest an aluminium de-oxidiser or a fine Scotch-Brite pass before the Metal Polish, to knock back the worst of the oxidation mechanically — it saves polish and time and gives you a more even result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStainless steel on a car mostly shows up on exhaust tips and sports exhaust systems. Heat, exhaust residue and moisture leave tarnish (bluish-gold discolouration from heat oxidation) and water spots on stainless. Meguiar's Metal Polish takes that tarnish off and brings polished stainless back to a high shine — for an exhaust that looks as good as it performs. On sports and stainless exhausts from quality makers especially, regular polishing is real value protection: a cared-for system is visibly worth more at resale than a neglected, spotted, tarnished one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the engine bay you'll often find brass and copper parts (line connectors, fittings, valves) that tarnish and oxidise from heat and moisture. Meguiar's Metal Polish does a good job here too — as long as the parts are accessible and cold. Inside the cabin, polished aluminium trim, stainless inlays around the gear knob and chrome interior touches can all be freshened up with the Metal Polish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor motorsport and tuning fans the Metal Polish is at home on engine parts too: polished aluminium rocker covers, air-filter housings, stainless exhaust manifolds and polished callipers are among the favourite jobs. After a proper polish with Meguiar's Metal Polish you get an engine bay that impresses on looks as much as on spec — the kind of detail that keeps pulling eyes at shows and meets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMeguiar's Metal Polish vs other metal polishes — what sets the Meguiar's formula apart\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNext to plain household metal cleaners (Sidol, Autosol and the like), Meguiar's Metal Polish is tuned far finer: the abrasives are sized to take off oxidation and tarnish effectively without working deep scratches into the metal. Coarse household polishes can leave visible scratches on soft metals like chrome and polished aluminium that dull the shine for good.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Meguiar's formula also carries chemical actives that go after oxidation compounds directly — not just sand them off. That mix of chemical oxidation-dissolving and finely tuned abrasives is the key to a streak-free, deep high shine after polishing. Plain polishes with no chemical side hit their limit on heavy oxidation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared with pure cleaners, the Metal Polish is also a full three-in-one process: cleaning (lifting dirt and spots), polishing (breaking down oxidation, building gloss) and protection (laying down a light seal). That saves time and effort against three-stage systems with separate cleaner, polish and sealant products. For the occasional home user who tends to their chrome trim once or twice a year, this all-in-one is ideal — for pros with heavy polishing volume, a three-stage job with dedicated single products can make sense to push the results even further.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor high-shine aluminium like polished alloys or motorsport alu, we'd add a seal with an aluminium-specific protective product after polishing with the Metal Polish, since the Metal Polish's built-in protective layer only lasts short-term on hard-worked surfaces. The Metal Polish itself lays down the high-shine base for a long-life seal to key into perfectly. Polished alloys that get a wheel sealant after the Metal Polish are much easier to clean, since brake dust and dirt cling less to the smooth, sealed surface — and the high shine you worked so hard for lasts a lot longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMetal care through the year — seasonal tips for car chrome and metal parts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMetals on a car run through seasonal stress cycles that call for a care plan to match. In spring, after the winter months of road salt and cold, chrome and polished aluminium usually show the worst oxidation and spotting of the year. Road-salt residue that has settled into gaps and onto metal surfaces starts to attack the chrome layer and alloy surfaces chemically if it isn't cleared off in time. A thorough spring treatment with Meguiar's Metal Polish clears those winter deposits completely and sets the metal up well for the UV-heavy summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn summer, regular top-ups pay off: water spots and limescale build up when water dries fast on hot metal. A monthly refresh with the Metal Polish, or at least a regular wipe-down with a suitable metal care product, keeps the high shine up without much effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn autumn, before the salt season, we'd suggest a thorough polish followed by a seal: a fresh protective layer on chrome and polished metal is the best prep for winter's corrosive conditions. Road salt sitting in damp gaps and seams attacks unprotected chrome and aluminium far faster than sealed surfaces. Rust on chrome parts usually doesn't start on the chrome layer itself but underneath it — when moisture works through tiny cracks or pores in the chrome plating and the metal below oxidises. An intact protective layer slows that right down. The Metal Polish's light protective effect isn't enough on its own for winter — an extra metal sealant or wax layer to finish is worth it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor classics and youngtimers with big chrome areas we'd suggest a routine that pairs the Metal Polish with a chrome dressing afterwards: Metal Polish first to strip oxidation and build the high shine, then a chrome care product as a final, long-lasting protective layer. That combo keeps the signature chrome mirror shine on vintage cars going through every season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eStep by step: bringing oxidised chrome and metal back with Meguiar's Metal Polish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA good metal polish always starts with a thorough clean of the surface. Dirt, grease and road grime have to be fully off before the polish goes on — grit trapped in the polish acts like sandpaper and puts scratches in. For chrome trim: pre-wash with a mild cleaner and water, then dry. For aluminium wheels: pre-treat with a wheel cleaner and wheel brush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePut a small amount of Metal Polish on an applicator pad or a folded microfibre cloth — less is more. Spread the polish evenly across the metal and work it in with circular motions. The white haze of the polish turns clear as the abrasives do their work — that's the sign the polish has done its job and you're finished. Don't lean on the pad or cloth: the weight of the applicator is enough; extra pressure won't give a better result, but it does raise the risk of applicator scratches on soft metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen buff off with a clean, dry microfibre cloth and bring out the high shine. On heavily oxidised spots a second pass may be needed. The result shows the moment all the residue is buffed off: a clear, mirror-like metal surface with no oxidation, water spots or tarnish. If you're not fully happy with the shine, run a third pass with fresh polish — every pass pulls off more oxidation residue and step by step sharpens the reflection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor stainless exhaust tips with heat tarnish: put the Metal Polish on a pad and work it in circles with a bit more pressure — tarnish is more stubborn than ordinary water spots and needs more polish. After the first pass, buff off with a clean cloth and judge the progress; on heavy tarnish, plan on 2–3 passes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne important note for polishing parts near the engine bay or on hot car parts: never use the Metal Polish on warm or hot surfaces — the polish dries on too fast, leaves white residue and then buffs off only with a fight. Always work on cold parts that have cooled in the shade. After a drive, wait at least 30 minutes for the engine and exhaust to cool before you start polishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Metal Polish works inside the cabin too: polished aluminium interior trim, chrome touches on the centre console and stainless gear knobs all benefit from a polish. Inside, work with especially sparing amounts and keep the polish off leather, fabric or plastic parts — the abrasive side could damage them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuy Meguiar's Metal Polish — universal high shine for every metal\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeguiar's Metal Polish is €21.90 for the professional answer to every metal-care job on the car. The 6 oz (177 ml) size is ideal for the home user with moderate metal-care needs — and used sparingly it lasts for plenty of jobs on chrome trim, alloys and stainless exhausts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEspecially worth it for: classic-car owners with chrome bumpers and trim that need regular freshening; tuning and motorsport fans with polished aluminium engine parts and alloys; anyone prepping a car for a classic meet or a show; or simply anyone who wants to keep chrome touches and metal parts on the car looking sharp for good. Bike owners get plenty out of the Metal Polish too: chrome exhausts, polished engine covers and stainless components on motorcycles benefit from a polish just like car parts — the formula suits every kind of motor vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a pairing we'd suggest the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/meguiars-supreme-shine-microfiber-towel\"\u003eMeguiar's SUPREME Shine Microfiber Towel\u003c\/a\u003e for the streak-free buff after polishing and a soft \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/meguiars-soft-foam-applicator-pads\"\u003eMeguiar's Soft Foam Applicator Pad\u003c\/a\u003e for an even application — together they make a complete, professional metal-care kit to get the most out of the Metal Polish.
