    Polishing aluminum wheels?

    What are most people using to clean/polish wide 5 wheels? The polish/chrome is losing that shine and has more of a dull white look.

    Thanks in advance!

      Mothers mag and aluminum polish with above ball or if you wait to long like I do. Use a buffer like you would buff a car with.

        if there real bad hit them with 3m buffing compound and a wool pad 1st,them look up liqui tech polish,youll never use mothers again,a secrect I learned in the motorcycle world,(show bikes)a little will go along way,
        make sure and wear a mask,im sure its not good for the lungs when you use a buffer and it will be a messy job if you do several wheels

          We use Flitz and are amazed at how well they make old wheels look.

            I think Flitz does a little better job, but its harder to use than Mothers.
