    Test subject: Brand new Ford Racing Touring Axle Backs for 2010 GT500

    Machine: PC
    Pads: LC CCS White Polish 4 inch
    Towels: Costco Yellow

    Impressions of HD Metal: The consistency was very liquidy, not like your typical metal paste polish and I did shake the bottle very well. Very little goes a long way, felt more like a chemical polish cleaner then an abrasive metal polish. Now I must note when my HD products were delivered they froze outside on my door step, so I am not sure if this had any affect on the products performance. I did however immediately bring them inside and warm them up and shake very well.

    As they arrived:

    On a whim I tried HD Adapt on the with a LC Hydro Tech Blue Cutting pad, look at the difference!

    Now I did not try the HD Metal with a cutting pad, only a polishing pad. Overall I thought HD Metal did a great job, but Adapt took it to another level.

    For the record this review was NOT done in conjunction with the 3D/HD product/review exchange program.

    Nice!

    So you used the adapt after the metal polish?

    Yes. Didn't try Metal with a cutting pad though, wanted to try Adapt out.

    I am going to revisit this project and wet sand the SS mufflers and pipes with 500,1000,1500 and 2000 paper ande then hit them with Adapt and Metal.
