What axle polish do you use?

I see that Chevy uses turtle wax brand. How about the rest of you? I’ve only used the red block that comes with some dremel kits. I imagine it’s not the best.

Thanks. I guess if I can’t afford fte’s, I won’t be able to compete in most races anyway.
- Check out Red Pill Racing you tube channel. He builds a ton of mods and a lot of them are built without FTE wheels. I’m in the same boat. The FTE ‘s I do find are few and far between. I can’t seem to find anything in my neck of the woods. ( north of the border). — 41-14
- The color changer cars also have nickel-plated axles — 72_Chevy_C10
It's more axel prep with non FTE wheels/axels, but one of my fastest mods has mainline axels...a Country Club Muscle that has won two titles this year...and MDG Racing doesn't use FTE packages either and builds fast cars.
Yeah, I was just gonna buy a known brand and go with it anyway. I just wasn’t sure how sub par the dremel block was by comparison. And it’s almost gone. I believe what you’re saying about fte vs. a well done car. It’s just annoying that the bay prices aren’t so great on fte’s. And knowing which ones are the ideal axle width is difficult for a noob sometimes. I always bought cars to customize for show. I’d never heard of or even thought about modding to race until I stumbled upon this place while looking at customs.
- I too have a fastest modded car that is not fte. It was my nephews and disregarded by him probably 7 or so years ago. I just did all the stuff I read from you guys. Didn’t change the axles either. He never bent them like the rest of what I found of his. It’s that turbolance or whatever. — Jav74
- And, my Javelin got smoked by a non fte at Bare Muscle 4!lol — Jav74
I used some Brasso metal polish on non-FTE axles and I do notice a difference. I usually rub on with a rag and then buff with the Dremel.
I have used a few different brands but haven't seen any difference in them.
