so when i went to the Georgia state yoyo contest I was pretty much given a special edition 888 from 2008. The metal is kinda dull on it and I was wondering what to use to polish it and give it a nice shiny finish.

Most any metal or car polish will work.

Nevr Dull works very nice. Use it a lot.  
Dremel polising brush - is that a felt pad or a bristle brush? A felt pad with polishing rouge works too.

i ended up asking yoyospirit and put the 888 on a drill and while it was spinning held some never dull up against it and it came out very nice.
