A Mother’s polishing ball and metal polish paste. Be prepared to get polish flipped on you if you put too much down before you run the drill over it but it works fast.

Diamond plate sucks! I had it on my snowmobile trailer and had to do it every year. It looked great when I was done but it was a mess and a pain. I used Never Dull by hand for a while, then I went to a polishing wheel, a buffing pad and WD-40. Toward the end of owning it, I was using a Mothers metal polish that came in a red bottle if I remember right and a buffing pad on a polishing wheel. The pad was destroyed when I got done, but it looked good.

Mothers Polish, like he said, it comes in a red bottle if I remember correctly. It’s the consistency of liquid wax

Bad link or picture, blank for me too. Just go to any auto parts store and go to the detailing section, pick up a Mother’s polishing ball and a bottle of Mothers metal polish.

Mine is black so I don't need to worry about it.
