The car is a weekend only nice weather car so doesn't get more than a dusting with the California duster 2 - 3 times a week. What is the best way to keep the chrome rims clean and shiney without breaking out the hose to wash dry and wax them individually. Any products that will clean but not scratch them?????

I use Eagle One Wet Wipe 'n Shine spray detailer to clean the chrome wheels on my 'bird. It also helps to keep the brake dust from sticking.

Nice coat of a quality wax.

What kind of wax? A spray on I assume?

I did a paste wax them the last time I washed and waxed the car. Now that they have brake dust and/or road sand. Won't a new coat of wax scratch the chrome if they have brake dust, dust, or maybe some road sand on them? I don't want any chances of scratching the chrome.


Does the Eagle One just get sprayed onto the dusty/dirty rim and wiped off with a rag or what type of rag/cloth works best without any scratches?

I use a microfiber cloth! Wet the cloth and just wipe down the wheels like you would when your washing them, then dry it off with a towel! Works well for me!

I have chrome z06 rims also - I use only metal gloss - master formula - Stuff is amazing. I tried everything from eagle one to mothers nothing can touch this stuff. I bought 4 bottles of this stuff. Trust me you will love this stuff. I bought it at www.metalgloss.com - Had this stuff at the auto show in detroit a couple years ago

I use meguiars NXT all metal polish, for my Z06's and it works great.

Spray it on a clean terry towel, wipe the wheel down with it, and then buff it off with another clean terry towel.

Occassionally apply your favorite wheel polish.

Hate to rob this thread but I have polished ZO6's instead of chrome. My car only sees the outside maybe twice a week. But they still get dirty. What do you guys use for polished wheels to keep them clean longer than one day of driving?
