its hard to keep up with alu wheels. chrome are easier to clean but they don't last long and start peeling.

It took months to get it all done like this. It looks just like the day I did it 7 months ago. It's NEVER driven in rain and sits in the garage. Weird, it hasn't oxidized one bit in 7 months.
