Re: [ST] Polish

["geoff hansford" <geoffhansford@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Lots of race teams use furniture polish to get a good, quick finish on thier
race bikes.... one thing to watch, be careful of those polishes with
silicone in them, it makes the bike much more difficult to repaint if one
has damage.  Try one of the furniture polishes without the silicone in them
(often the plain brand/no frills ones don't ;-)
