I usually use Megs

Autosol for me too mate, the Meg's to me was a bit too light and didn't remove the tarnish very well, its good for a finishing polish :thumbup1:

Very true, the autosol has more bite to remove carbon build up but the nxt will create far better gloss for finishing.

If these two arent cutting it, a very fine grade of wire wool followed by the above 2 products will sort it, but looking at those pics, autosol and elbow grease will shift it.
