I'd just wash them off good & then grab a power ball or rag & some mothers billet polish. Thats what I use on my Convo Pros

I use Bling Master. Best Aluminum polish out there. Wash the rims, use a soft micro cloth with light pressure and let the Bling Master polish do it's magic.

There's a ton of products that you can use. It's not so much the polish, its the procedure. Autosol from eastwood is good; mothers billet is good as well. Once again, don't fret on which type to use, it’s what you use to polish (pads) and the speed of the machine you're using.

How well does the Blingmaster, etc. do at keeping the wheels shiny if you actually drive the car? My concern with polished wheels is that while they look awesome when polished, I don't want them to start looking like crap after 10 miles of driving.

I stripped my wifes wheels and used bling master and have only polished them again one times since last spring and hers is a Daily driver.

Don't use any type of stripper on our Bogart wheels. They, like most high-end wheels are not coated. The only thing you should need is to keep them waxed which reduces dirt from pentrating into the aluminum.

If you need to buff or polish them, use a billet polish or cleaner and then recoat them with wax when you're done.
