MAAS Metal Polish at my local Ace Hardware

Just a note to those wanting to try out the highly recommended MAAS metal polish; I found it in 2-ounce tubes at a local (Irvine CA) Ace Hardware store. I don't know whether this is a national thing or just local, but it might be worth checking on.

I figure that if I really like it, then I'll get a larger quantity through the MAAS website.

I've long been a fan of NEVR-DULL wadding (blue can). It has a hydrocarbon solvent that really cuts through crud on older guitars. It also is available from most larger hardware stores.

Thanks for the receommendation, Paul, I'll keep an eye out for it the next time at the hardware store.

Gary: You can probably get your Zymol there too!

Ace Hardware does not carry Zymol. Har.

Paul: Are you saying that Ace is not the place?

I have used MAAS for a couple of years now. Does a great job on the old nickel tuners and chrome etc...

Maas, Wenol & Flitz are all excellent and basically the same polishing compound in three different tubes by 3 different companies, and all are excellent for exactly this purpose.

Mass, Wenol & Flitz.... there's a law firm name for you.

Wenol, Hope, Islost would rank right up there with the (in)famous Dewey, Cheatem & Howe. There was a law firm (for real) in San Diego by the name of Lyon & Lyon, always cracked me up hearing that name ...
