Superfly-use some of the Mother's metal polish. I had the same problem with the fading and spots. Looked like they were somehow etched into the metal. I used the metal polish and an hour of hand rubbing and they look 100% better. I'm thinking about getting one of the drill mounted foam polishers to see if it gets rid of the spots. I'll keep you updated.
I'll give it a shot. I've tried every cleaner i can imagine on them. Thanks for the heads up. What kind of cloth did you use to applicate?

I tried several: microfiber, super soft, terry, but amazingly enough, an old well worn white t-shirt seemed to do the trick for the initial application and rubbing. I buffed with a microfiber cloth. It looks pretty damn good. I still have so
E of the "etching" but it's nowhere near as noticable. From certain angles it almost looks chromed.

Mothers with the drill polishers works GREAT.
