M&M Truck Polishing - Eloy AZ

I kept old posts from a couple folks here that had a good (and budget conscious) experience with polishing by Antonio at M&M. I've tried calling a couple times but haven't had a return call.

Anyone know if this place is still doing business?

Funkill I tried calling them recently got no answer. I had also saved that post hoping someday to use them. I see on FB their last post is 6 months ago.

Thx Dr B, not sure if you are gently poking fun at us or not.

We had googled it

Not sure if Flash Polishing is the new name for M&M or a totally different business but neither is answering for now.

Gently poking fun. From the bottom of that page, it looks like M&M and Flash are two different businesses, but both may be under new management due to the drug busts three years or so ago.

There you go!

Polishing is faster with meth...

Lol.

I never saw an aluminum polisher around a truck stop that wasn't a skinny fast talker with bad teeth..

I'm headed to Tucson in 2-weeks. I'm going to try to allow enough time to tool around Eloy and see what I can find.

The other polishing shops don't have any pics other than tanks and wheels. I'm not really interested in the Silver Olive being a test case.

Thanks for the replies!

We're headed west in October. We plan to stay in Tucson for a few days before driving north to Phoenix. I'll be interested to hear what you find out about M&M polishing. BTW, any suggestions of things to do in Tucson would be greatly appreciated!

Though I planned to stop in at M&M almost 6 wks ago, I seemed to be running late each time I made a run from Phoenix to Tucson. Last week, I made an Unplanned trip into Eloy due to an (almost) flat tire on I-10......

Bad news - M&M looked closed. It was a Saturday afternoon, but it didn't look too promising. Boo

Other bad news: the two service stations right off the freeway didn't have any air. First place, Pilot, had a gaping hole in the air hose. Second place, Flying J, just didn't work and actually just let another 10lbs of air out as I was testing. Flipping disaster - had to put $24 worth of fix-a-flat type crap in my tire just to get to the next stop.

I mostly just go to Tucson to see a friend - eat and drink. We've been to Monteray Court twice for a blues band. Old hotel turned into artist shops, music and food. Home

I've only been in AZ for a few months and I'm still trying to find some sweet spots. I've enjoyed the entertainment area in Glendale, Westgate. It's right near the big Univ of Phx stadium.
