Tips on polishing WS6's?
 
Anyone have any tips on how to get WS6 wheels to shine up? I would like to try a few things before spending the money to get them high speed polished. Looking for tips on compounds or methods.......?

Until and unless you remove the clear coat on them, all you are really doing is polishing the clear coat paint and not the metal itself. Having said that, I found that using hand glaze and top quality high gloss waxes and polishes (made for paint) worked great.

I then decided that I either needed to get the clear removed and have them properly high polished (but then they require more maintenance to stay looking that good) or go chrome. So I just decided to buy another set of WS6 wheels in chrome. Chrome is so much easier to care for, and shines to a degree that the stock wheels could only dream of. :cheers:
