Default polishing up my wheels

i have a set of C5 thin spokes that are in need of a good polishing. ive never polished them up before so i dont know the first thing about doing it. whats the best way to make them shine like new that even a noob like me can do.

I think the C5 thin spokes are clear coated....so polishing won't do anything for you

Are they chrome...? if they are just get the cheap chrome mothers(I know not the best blah blah but its easier to find and not that bad!) and get a terry or micro towel and use the directions and clean your wheels. Should look much better than before.

i have the same wheels, and i think they're all clear coated. some people say they use stripper to remove the clear coat. i dont know what the process is like, but i would like to know as i would like to make them shine a bit more.
