Default Found some BAD *** wheel polish.

I was using a product called "Way 2EZ polish" I just THOUGHT this was the ****.



A buddy of mine told me to try "White Diamond" aluminum polish. I found it in Advance Auto Parts, truck stops also sell it.

Truly amazing stuff!

PICS







No "process" per say, I had already polished them...I keep them polished, but they had a real bad haze on them. 90 seconds per wheel, wiped it on, wiped it off.

They are polished but i would need to sand them down. Regular polishing wont work, I tried. I kinda neglected them during the rainy season here in FL.

Yep, my dad uses that on his alum on his Semi..That and there's another good company called "Hoosier" aluminum polish. Not sure if they're with the tire company or not.
