I recently aquired a kirby G5 and an ultimate G Diamond edition. Both of which could use a major polish. I purchased the mothers polish in the red and white can, and it helped, but didn't give that brand new looking mirror shine that I see all of you posting. I currently don't own a buffer and am restricted to polishing by hand. I really want them to look like new. Do I just need to keep going? I have already spent hours on each, or is there a different product that works better? Currently a Rainbow collecter and am new to the Kirby family! Help! Thanks!

You CAN keep hand polishing, but for that wonderful mirror finish, you have no choice but a buffer! Harbor Freight carries cheap ones!

You can try steel wool grade #0000 with that mag polish. That's what I've always used. I'm sure others on here will offer something better but this is all I can offer you.

Like super sweeper said, you can go to harbor freight, and for $39, get a buffer. Save yourself a lot of time and aggravation.
I've had mine for two years and it still works great.

Go on YouTube. There's numerous videos on how to tear them down. Besides the royal metals, the kirby is probably the easiest to work on.
