Mothers Power Ball

Has anyone used the mother's powerball? I am considering using the mini one to polish my wheels this spring. Doing it by hand just takes to long.

If anyone has any info. please post it up. Thanks!

Another thumbs-up on the powerball. Actually found I like the mini-powerball better. Can get into smaller places.

Both the mini and full size work great for getting your wheels in good shape.

Thanks guys. I have one more question; more than likely you used it for application. Did you use the powerball or a rag for removal of the polish?

I use a towel for removal.

I applied my metal polish with a cotton applicator, misted the powerball with water and used it for polishing and removal of the product, and then finished up with some Mother's aluminum polish and a cotton towel.

All smiles here.. Definitely worth the money! Saves time and does a great job! I've got the mini.

Just be sure you use the correct polish... Alum/Chrome...

I use it for application. Not for removal yet.. I'd imagine it'd do a good buffing job..

I bought the original size a few weeks ago, worked fantasic on my stock WS6 wheels. before I started they looked dirty / yellowish all the time. 20 min per wheel with the PB and a little elbow grease for the tight areas... and BLING

I have the large one and it worked great with Wenol polish on my TPI runners and upper manifold....

For doing the wheels and other parts under the hood, get the small one.
