Default Best wheel polish?

I was wondering what wheel polish everyone is using, I pick up a set of torque thrust that are gray with a polished lip. The only problem is the lips need to be polished, I have some stuff at work that works great just wanted some different opinions.

mothers all the way. I use to have a fox body mustang that had drag lites on it and mothers made them look like they just came out of the box.

A high speed drill with a mushroom buff ball and English Custom Polishes to get the tough stuff, and Mother's Billet to get it the rest of the way.

Thumbs up

Looks really good! You remember the name of the polish and how did you apply it?
