Eagle One or Mother's Wheel polish works well.

I use Eagle One, and it works GREAT! I've used it on my Boyds, and it really takes a LOT of the fine scratches out. I'm going to use them on my Convo Pros as well.

Eagle One here <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0"> It's hard work but it really brings out the shine in the wheels.

Bringing this one to the top since I started the post way back when...

but what if the wheels start to get what looks like "water spotted"? Anything a little stronger that might get that out before a polishing coat?

I'm a Wenol user too. I had Weld Pro Stars on my '88 Camaro, and I used Wenol on them exclusively.
