Best wheel polish?

I was wondering what wheel polish everyone is using, I pick up a set of torque thrust that are gray with a polished lip. The only problem is the lips need to be polished, I have some stuff at work that works great just wanted some different opinions.

A high speed drill with a mushroom buff ball and English Custom Polishes to get the tough stuff, and Mother's Billet to get it the rest of the way.

Looks really good! You remember the name of the polish and how did you apply it?
