DIRECTIONS
Apply a small amount of Metal Worx to a applicator or Microfibre Towel. Apply the polish to the metal surface until a dark grey residue appears. Buff off residue with a clean and dry Microfibre Towel to reveal a polished and shiney surface. For extreme tarnish or rust surfaces use our "00" grade fine wire wool for deep cleaning.
WHAT AM I TESTING IT ON?
Mild steel exhaust of a Corsa CDTi
WHAT DO I THINK OF IT?
Well, the process was to clean the grime off with a Brillo pad, wire wheel in the Draper multitool to take off any corrosion and clean the pitting, then MetalWorx on the buffing wheel of the Draper multitool. I will let the pictures do the talking, the final one says it all.
Pro's & Con's
Well priced at only £12 for 200g, as a little goes a very long way. It is nicely presented in the tin. Only downside that I can find is that the card insert in the lid comes loose and falls out, but that really is nitpicking.
So the photos:

Not bad for a bit of mild steel eh? Granted, the pitting was too deep to do anything about, but the difference this makes to the backend of the car is quite remarkable if you ask me.
