Default Mothers mini ball

Was curious if anyone has tried the mother's mini ball that attaches to your cordless drill, just curios as to how well it may work on your chrome, paint, etc. Thanks

I just heard of it to polish aluminum. BTW, where do you buy them?

I've seen them advertised on T.V. andseen them in several stores. I cant help to think that when these things spin that you will sling liquid polish everywhere. I think I'll stick with the rag...Just my $.02

OK, I used the power ball, and it worked great! It didn't splatter crap all over, which suprised me. I used my cordless drill, low speed, and worked it in, then worked on polishing the wheel.

Works good for polishing aluminum covers. I wouldn't use it on the chrome though. I tried the Mothers spray detailing wax on the chrome and it worked even better than the Mothers chrome polish. Realy made the chrome glow.

What I have found on chrome, when I use the spary detail stuff, the chrome clouds up in about a day. I started using Zymol wax, and that sh$t works great!
