Jim uses that aircraft aluminum polish to make it like mirrors. Everyone else just uses steel wool and elbow grease.

Very nice, she will clean up well, and don't worry about the wife, they are always buying random S**t just look in all the closets

Yes, I use Supra 90 Aircraft Metal Polish.  It's price is not for the faint of heart though.  $16.50 for a 4.5 ounce container or $43 for a 1 lb container.  If your interested, here's a link to purchase:

Here's a thread with a trick on polishing lid vents:

I can't take credit for discovering the use of Supra 90 for polishing Weber parts.  That credit goes to Brian, WKC member #2 -  @zavod44  It works amazing on lid vents, legs and ash buckets.  Compared to Mothers Polish, Supra 90 cuts your polish time in at least half.
