Re: Anyone know how to get water spots off of polished rims??? Z6 works very well to remove water spots on polished wheels. I am sure there are other items out there that work also but I know this works. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Re: Anyone know how to get water spots off of polished rims??? I tried simple green on my welds and it seemed to do a fantastic job on cleaning them up <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: Anyone know how to get water spots off of polished rims??? Carlos, if they look kinda brownish, like they've been set in there a while, use Mother's polish (little red can with white lid) and it'll take them out. If they're fresh, use any kind of detailing spray and rub em out. Polished rims are MAINTENANCE!
