Default Aluminum Wheel Polish
Whats up guys i was wondering if some of you can give me some ideas on what wheel polish you guys use. I have some reproduction Z06 Wheels Polished Aluminum (not chrome). I have some mothers polish but i can't seem to take out some brake dust dust blemishes. Any ideas would be great thanks

IMO Mothers Billet is the best made.

Meguiar's wadding polish. Simplest and fastest on the market...BAR NONE! I swore by it when I had my Boyd's!

I haven't had great luck with mine...but anyhoo, I use English Custom Polishes. I'm waiting on my new felt tip bobs to come in to get in the places the Powerball just can't go.

I use Mother's Billet polish but if the wheels are real bad then I've wet sanded them and they look brand new after I finish.
