the best thing for ccw wheels is to clear coat them as soon as you get them ccw themselves. its a never ending battle with oxidation with these wheels (speaking from experience). Although hours of cleaning them does have its rewards.....but not worth it in the long run.

I did rcv my Adam's Polish Monday evening, but I haven't had a chance to work on them...
I sold mt TTII's last night so I have to try to finish these up if I wanna drive the Z anytime soon. (although I haven't driven it in a few months...lol)
Here is a pic of them inside, too hot to be working on them outside...
I rcv'd these back on 5/10...

It's F'n bad ***!
I have only tried it on a small area to compare it to MOTHERS...but THERE IS NO COMPARISON AT ALL! ADAMS POLISH is way better!
Unfortunately I won't have a chance to work on these again for a while now...too busy...but I'll keep everyone posted ok my progress.

but on the inexpensive side I use Noxon (check your supermarket, mine has it for $5 or Lowes for $4) to clean the wheel and mothers billet to polish them up.
I did 3 wheels the past couple of days and got my process back. Using the mothers powerball sucks but I use it for the inner barrel with Noxon to clean of the ugly stuff, then hand polish with with the Noxon...the finish is awful after Noxon but follow up with Mothers Billet to give them a shine.
I found using buffing wheels on a drill with mothers billet and Noxon do not leave a good finish...my best results were by hand

This is just a small comparison from last night...
I think yall deserve a small preview.
Pic1: after Adams on the left spoke and Mothers on the right spoke.
Pic2: I had already sanded the edge with 400,600 &800 I'm still gonna do a pass with 1000 and then 1500... So this shows how well Adams worked after 800 grit
Pic3:
Pic4: again this stuff is the $hi+
