I have some billet parts that need the finish restored I have been looking for a good product I mostly use 3m products. I am only concerned with first hand experiences thanks

I use White Diamond on my wheels being there C5's from OEWheels.com and really like it. I know there are some stuff out there that is probably better but since I can get it from my Advance Auto store, I use it.

Adam's Metal Polish 1&2 are great. Depending on how bad the metal is I sometimes start with 0000 steel wool and mothers mag/aluminum polish then move onto the Adams. Get some decent MF utility towels. Junk MF towels can do more harm that good.

I've been using mothers mag/aluminum polish. Pretty decent stuff for OTC. I'm not really into the OTC products other than 3M.

I've heard a lot of good things about White Diamond. Next time I run across it I will pick some up. It's always good to have options.

I have probably 8 metal polishes ranging from Duragloss, to Collinite, to Mother's, to Meguiar's and the best one I've used has been that White Diamond stuff from Advance Auto. It also has a sealant in it which has decent durability so they are way easier to clean.
I don't have pics on my computer but I wish I could show the difference it made on my TT2s when I first bought them used.

The best product I've ever used is Adams 1 and Adams 2 metal polish. That stuff brought a set of CCW's back to show-room condition.

Zephyr pro 40 is what I always use on my Peterbilts (lots of aluminum to polish on these). Best one I've used hands down, and I've tried a lot of them. You can find this @ the Peterbilt dealerships or online.

Is white diamond safe for on clear coated aluminum wheels? I have wheels from oe wheels as well (c4 zr1) .

All i have used so far is Eagle One Original NEVER DULL wadding Polish in the Silver 5oz can. Its a cotton type of batting you pull off what you need and rub away cleans and shines good. I don't wax over it and it never seems to tarnish back up. I have only used it under the hood never rims.

If your wheels are clear coated you should not be using aluminum polish. You only polish bare aluminum.

For clear coated wheels you use the same process as you would for the paint on your car.

How can you tell if the wheels is clear coated or not? Can anybody tell me if the oe wheels c4 zr1 is clear coated or not.....

If your rag turns black when rubbing the polish on its bare aluminum. If it doesn't its clear coated.
