Hi guys,
what products do you use to treat and maintain the matte aluminum trim on your RS6?

Thanks, does this product preserve the matte finish, or does it try to polish and add a shine? I want something That won't try and make the trim shiny? Also, I have a lotus elise, which has a lot of aluminum on the inside of the car. Do you think this product would work, or is there a pretty foul odor? Thanks again

I would give Capt. Richards a call and discuss details of their product with them. It worked well on my trim and left the original finish. I had a few water spots on the trim and it did a great job removing them. I apply it in our enclosed garage- the odor isn't bad and dissipates.

Thanks Max - just ordered some bombs away. My matte trim needs detailing, and this looks like just the stuff.

I also hope it works on the grill surround of my 1972 Chev Cheyenne 3/4T 4X4. Lots of aluminum surface there!
