Dr. Wack "P21S" P21S "Metall-/ Alu-Polish" Metal Polish 100ml

Dr. Wack P21S Metall- / Alu-Polish – mirror shine & protection for every metal surface

How does Dr. Wack P21S Metall-/Alu-Polish work? It cleans, polishes and protects metal like alloy, chrome or stainless steel in one pass, pulls off oxidation and holds a lasting mirror shine without scratching.

Dr. Wack P21S Metall-/Alu-Polish is the pro-grade metal polish for every unpainted and painted, non-anodised metal part on your car – wheels, exhaust tips, trim strips or engine parts. It reliably clears hazy patches, rust film and baked-on brake dust and brings the material back to a mirror shine. Made for anyone who wants proper metal gloss without risking fresh scratches or dull spots.

• Maximum mirror shine: Pulls off the oxidation haze and leftover scratch marks and leaves metal reflective and evenly glossy – spot on for alloy, chrome or stainless steel.

• Cleaning & protection in one: Dedicated polishing additives break down corrosion traces, while protective components build a sealant against weather and salt residue.

• Easy to work with: Goes on effortlessly with polishing wadding or a microfibre cloth – no machine needed, no risk of holograms.

Polishing technology & how the metal polish works

The formula behind Dr. Wack P21S Metall-/Alu-Polish runs on finely matched polishing minerals and quality protective additives. They lift microscopic oxide layers and deposits without attacking the metal underneath. The clever bit is the self-refining abrasive structure: the particles break down as you polish and get finer on their own – which is what gives you an even, scratch-free finish. At the same time a protective component leaves a thin, weather-resistant film that heads off fresh oxidation and moisture. So the shine holds far longer – even with everyday brake dust, salt or UV.

The right way to apply it for perfect results

For the best result, put a small amount of P21S Metall-/Alu-Polish onto polishing wadding or a soft microfibre cloth. Shake the tube hard before you start so the polishing bodies spread evenly. Then work the product into the metal with light pressure. On unpainted surfaces you can lean on it a bit more – on painted parts (painted alloy wheels, for instance) gentle pressure is plenty. After a short flash-off time, wipe the residue away with a clean microfibre cloth. For an even shine, do the whole surface rather than just the odd spot. On heavily oxidised surfaces a second pass often pays off.

Long-term effect, protective layer and pairing

Once applied, the P21S Metall-/Alu-Polish leaves a wafer-thin protective layer that shrugs off weather, moisture and salt deposits. That layer is built on polymer protective agents that shield the bare metal from fresh corrosion. On parts you clean often or that take a hammering (wheels or exhaust tips, say) it pays to run the polish regularly – roughly every two to three months. Paired with the P21S Felgenreiniger POWER GEL you get the best overall result, since the cleaner shifts the heavy dirt and the polish then refines the surface. To buff it off we recommend a quality microfibre cloth or polishing wadding, to keep micro-scratches out.

Common questions about Dr. Wack P21S Metall-/Alu-Polish

Which metals can I use P21S Metall-/Alu-Polish on? It works on aluminium, chrome, stainless steel, copper, brass, silver and other non-anodised metals – unpainted as well as painted.

Can I use the polish on chrome-plated plastic too? No, the product must not be used on chrome-plated plastic, as it can damage the surface.

How often should I use the metal polish? Depending on how hard the parts work, once every two to three months is enough to keep the shine and protection going.

Do I need to clean the surface before polishing? Yes, the surface should be free of dirt, grease and brake dust. Ideally give it a wheel cleaner first.

What happens if I polish too hard? On painted metal parts too much pressure can leave fine marks – so always work with feel and grab soft cloths.

So polierst du Metall mit dem P21S

Reinige die Fläche zuerst von Schmutz, Fett und Bremsstaub, idealerweise mit einem Felgenreiniger. Schüttle die Tube danach kräftig, damit sich die Polierkörper gleichmäßig verteilen, und gib etwas Politur auf Polierwatte oder ein weiches Mikrofasertuch.

Arbeite das Produkt mit leichtem Druck in die Metallfläche ein. Auf unlackiertem Alu, Chrom oder Edelstahl darfst du etwas mehr Kraft einsetzen, auf lackierten Teilen wie lackierten Felgen reicht sanfter Druck. Bearbeite immer die ganze Fläche statt einzelner Stellen, das gibt einen gleichmäßigen Glanz.

Nach kurzer Ablüftzeit nimmst du die Rückstände mit einem sauberen Mikrofasertuch ab. Bei stark oxidierten Oberflächen lohnt ein zweiter Durchgang. Zur Auffrischung des Schutzfilms reicht eine Anwendung alle zwei bis drei Monate.
