Thanks for the replies - I was wondering whether to try "Silvo" silver polish. It is a very fine abbrasive plus some chemical action, I think. It's a bonzer on stainless steel. Has anybody used it on aluminium? I might give it a go on a small area underneath.

Gidday everyone, I am about to take delivery of a '96 Jeep Cherokee XJ, which has an aluminium bull-bar. Except for the back side of the top (which is painted matt black), it is bare aluminium.

Gidday sinner, Coincidentally, I am in the process of buying an XJ which has already been converted. This one has had a cylinder (60 litre usable) slung underneath where the petrol tank originally went. A new (60 litre) petrol tank is fitted in front of the LPG tank. The disadvantages of this ...

Gidday all, I need to replace my rusty old FJ60 Land Cruiser, and browsing thru a dealers yard, I was surprised by the low price of second-hand Jeeps. Looking further on the Net, there seem to be quite a few with under 150,000km going for $8-10k. Can anyone give me some advice on the 1990s models of ...
