i too got hooked on it at a car show i have polished torque thrust II's polished aluminum is just fun to clean we al know this. well i happen to walk up to the wenol booth and they start the pitch he asks for a coin out of my pocket i give him this almost brown quarter. hits it with the red wenol and it comes out like chrome hits with the blue wenol and it looks even more glossy. after that i was hooked been using it for 4 years now. till just recently i switched to griots mag wheel polish but i still dont think it works as well as wenol. highly recomend it.

I've heard nothing but great things about Wenol and I've been wanting to try it. I use Mothers Billet and I have had amazing results with it. I too have used a lot of different products but I always go back to Mothers. I'll place an order soon for some wenol and see how it works out.
I have some of the wheel wax stuff like American Racing sells. I found it somewhere else. I've used it a few times on my other cars but on my polished wheels I thought it made them look a little dull and I really don't think it helped much. I would just save your money and use the same thing that you would use on your paint. I use tropicare on my wheels a lot

I use Busch polish. Totally destroys Mother's mag and aluminum polish(Busch by hand > Mothers w/ powerball). I haven't tried Busch w/ the Powerball yet, waitin' for a good day to do all my wheels. Polished Z06 wheels SUCK. lol.

Check out some stuff called SPEEDY (around here its at truck stops)
It will give you results even better then the results posted above.
My fuel rails now look chrome. Have an older set of pro stars that did not look that great and look brand new.
A buddy of mines alternator bracket on his LT1 formula now looks polished.

On aluminum wheels I find out of everything out there the Heavy Metal polish in the blue bottle works the best. I sometimes use the blue wenol with it or by itself. I have billet specialties wheels on my show truck and they look like new all the time. Lasts along time too.
I have chrome too though and would like to know what works best on chrome wheels. I have used the wenol blue on my bumpers of my truck.

I might have to give that stuff a try then.
