...one of the things i love about forums (not just this one)...
...exposure to a new product.
after reading this, i "BIN" the complete novus "kit" -great stuff so far.
i have also used silver polish and "white" toothpaste -not gel for some more stubborn stains followed w/ 3M cutting polish and wax -works especially well on aluminum. btw, the toothpaste trick works wonders on glasstop stoves -my wife was impressed -after saving her much aggravation -of course you have to have a "taste" for mint!
