Very Nice!
Mothers does a great job if the oxidation is not too bad. Nuvite has different levels of grit. This will speed the process up. Learning about all of this getting the camper to a mirror polish.

Looks real nice! I hope it does well on ebay for you.
Creighton, what kind of camper do you have? I'm restoring a 1960 Avion and will have to take on the polishing job sooner or later. I've only started looking into the Nuvite products.

I'm not familiar with this product and this was accomplished with hand rubbing...?
Lastly, just for aclification, it's called "Mothers Aluminum Cleaner" or "O'Reillys"...?

Jim,
Any auto parts store should have it. Just ask for Mothers Mag Wheel Polish (alum). You can use it with a polisher or by hand. Just a white paste. Best results are with 100 % cotton t-shirt fabric. Micro fiber for the final polish.

Yeah it's real easy to use..
I used a terry cloth towel rag to apply and remove, then final polish with microfiber towel.
I haven't tried it on stainless yet, but was going to try it this weekend...
