James,

Thanks for the X-Treemly helpful information... I'm convinced now that I need to drive over to the east coast and swap out my brand new skid pan for one of your highly polished units --- along with some of that miracle elixir: "X-Treem". You don't happen to give big discounts to dim-witted, impoverished Floridians, do you?

I'll be sure and call ahead when I can break away for a day... hopefully sooner rather than later.

Ed

You have to wetsand it, and it will take some time. YOU HAVE TO USE WATER, KEEP IT WET. Then once you have all the edges out and the surface smooth, then you can polish it...Send it to me and I will do it for you. $100 bucks..

Bright Lee: how would you compare X-Treem to Blitz or Semichrome or any of the other more widely known metal polishes? (more widely known to me, that is)<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Slight mistakes in my earlier post - Blitz should have been Flitz and Semichrome should have been Simichrome. What can I say, it is several years since I polished anything...

Bright-Lee mine is still as shiny as the day I got it!
I just treat it like the painted surfaces. Wash it with high quality car wash and rinse it then towel dry it. Nothing Special - Looks great! I get alot of great comments on it! Thanks Again for the Great Job and quick turnaround! Taking it off and puting it on is a 10 min. job tops.

Don't hesitate to let BRIGHT-LEE work his magic on your SKID PLATE - You will not be sorry!!!!

Metal Magic is the same stuff...all polishes work and most work pretty good (this refers to creme polishes). I happen to prefer X-Treem Metal polish because it polishes with minimal abrasions. Also, the X-Treem Metal Magic sealer is so far the best I've found.
Good Hummerman (gosh I hope I got your name right ) It would probably be cheaper to ship it than pay for the gas money to drive over in your H2. Shipping for Fla. residents is only 15$.

Nope, I was talking about Metal Majic which is an X-treem product not any product under the metal magic name such as Blue Magic Metal Polish.
Never mind, I answered my own question by googling a little further: Metal Majic is indeed the sealer portion of the X-treem Products line.

Thank you ACR H2! Only 35 posts to finally get a pic. I think the polished skid plate looks great. It will definitely compliment any LUX package. Thanks again.

Looks great.

Can you post a wide picture of the front of the car with the skid plate?

Sorry i am late with the pics, i left town and just got back
here are a few pics i just took, the H2 has not been washed since i got the plate, yet the plate still shines like the day i got it.

Well Ed, the sealer is part 2 of the "X-Treem" kit. It works like wax on your paint or Rain-X on your window. It works really well on aluminum as that is what it was designed for. Sealer provides a minumium of 1 month and up to 3 months of protection and requires no additional maintaince above routine washing of your Hummer. I have tested this on my aluminum rims at the mud pits and everything else comes out covered in muck except my rims and people are amazed. James

What you say is true if you don't maintain it. I polish parts on high end performance vehicles and have personally seen that raw aluminum can and does manitain without oxidation with simple care. Maintaince is easy with "X-Treem Metal Polish" and sealer. Anodizing prices will be available soon for those don't mind loosing some of the shine in name of protection and no maintaince and the extra cost. It also would give the option of colorizing the skid plate.
