i ceramic coated two cars over the weekend with mothers CMX, came up bloody good and supposedly lasts, might be worth trying on polished Ali . Also a little heads up,I use a bench polisher daily and have been doing so for more than  40 years,so for anyone using a bench polisher for the first time, make sure that you only touch what you are polishing BELOW the centre line / Spindle of the Buff wheel otherwise what you are polishing can be ripped out of your hands and cause injury to you or the  thing you are polishing

Good point Steve, absolutely right. Also wear glasses and gloves when polishing, glasses it's obvious why, gloves because some parts can get rather hot when being polished!

Not sure how this stuff stacks up compared to the pro stuff, but was recommended to me and seems pretty good, Will try some on the visor and see how it goes

At the detailing place yesterday I was talking about this very thing.
The pros generally offer a warranty (I think he said 7-10 years is how long the product allegedly lasts for.)
He said it'd be $600-$700 to do our Mazda3.

It's new and already has some sort of 'paint protection' on it, organised by the leasing company (not dealer), so not spending the $ on ceramic at the moment.
I should find out what this existing paint protection is (sure as heck won't be ceramic)
