Most people have clear coated wheels so you won't get many responses. Mothers wheel polish works very well on bare aluminum wheels.

I use a couple different ones. Just depends on the grade of metal you are working on. 75 chrome shop has some good stuff. Also use the Master Formula brand.

You can get White Diamond at Advance Auto and IMHO it's better than my Blingmaster. Plus it's 15 bucks instead of around 25.
