Default Dull aluminum Primary

Ok, I need some advice
I have a 02 Super and Im having problems getting the aluminum Primary to shine.
Iv tried Never dull, and Billet cleaner (Mothers), but Im stillnot getting the shine back. I bought the bike used a year ago, seems the owner wasnt the shine freek that Iam.
Iv toyed with replacing the primary, but once I added it all up, it got a bit out of control (500).
Any help would be appricated.
Any suggestions?

Are you doing it by hand? A Mother's power ball might be what you need.

If you MUST have chrome, try ebay. I got a chrome one for about $250.00 last year.

I would love to shine it without removing the pimary. Worse case, I will remove it and use a wheel.
I will check out the Mothers Ball.

Try going over it with crocus cloth, then buff it with red rouge, then polish it.

I have used Mother's mag and aluminum polish and it works. It's not like you have it chromed, btu you can use Mother's ball on it. I have the Flitz ball but never used it on the bike yet.

Try the small tube of HD metal polish. I used it on my 883 and it worked really well unless you have claer coat in the cover?
