    i no a lot of people that use a polishing compound, but i never have to good of luck with it. i prefer the good ole fashion way (a little time consuming though) of starting out with a 180 grit to clean it off real good and then slowly working my way up to 2000 grit. it always looks good in the end!

    I've seen ressies done before, I dont know for sure if Hondas are aluminum or not.

    Your cases will polish though, take a tip from my thing use a magnet to check which ones and which ones arent aluminum.

    Pratice on your motor mounts first
