I bottle that bracket used and sanded it and polished it by hand (hours and hours went into it!) The pins that where in it were old looking so I bought some new ones at Lowes and they seem to be a hair bigger because they are a PIA to pull in and out, so they maybe bigger and tighter than the factory ones and if so keep it from rattling!

Did my dad's wheels this last weekend, and in the process of stripping my painted Forgeline RS wheels and everything is looking great. Car has been down for a front end rebuild, hope to have it put back together by this weekend. will post before and after pics. This is a great product.

Well I got my bottle in today and had to do a quick polish. Just 15 minutes on one wheel and there was a total difference! It almost looks chrome
When the weather gets better, I'll have to post some before and after pics.
So I must say, awesome product, fast shipping, and great service (free microfiber cloth)

I got some about a month ago...very easy on and off. Takes very little (dime sized drops on a cloth to do a whole wheel) to work.
Looks very good when done...almost identical to 15 minutes with a mothers power ball...maybe a slightly richer deeper shine but not a ton.
Same basic stuff as a brand called Green Magic I once bought at trader's village in dallas for a lot cheaper ($10 for a larger bottle)
unlike some of the mother's polishes it doesnt seem to help water bead and run off very well...the wheels looked a little dull after a a couple weeks driving and washing them off didn't bring back as much shine
might try waxing them lightly afterwards next time
