Cleaning TT2's
 

How does or what does every one use to clean their Polished aluminum TT2's?......ive had mine for a week or so and its about time the get cleaned cause they are looking a bit dirty.


Thanks

dont have TT2's but my Boyd Smoothies are similar. I use "Heavy Metal", and/or "Metal Gloss"

some "black magic" and a buffer and polish!! at the end those wheels would look BETTER than chrome!

Well im saying to get the dirt off.....i hear these things scar and stain easily....I heard im not supposed to use the brush at the car wash on them.

I use either Wenol or Master Formula. Both are awesome products and leave a protective film behind to further protect the wheels for a while after.

Your only like an hour and a half away from me!

WERD i think i have actually seen ur car drive thru Hereford once, a good while back.....U use those products to get the dirt and stuff of the wheels? Can i get that at Vatozone?

Probably on my way to Amarillo when you see me in Hereford. Another guy always claims he sees me there too, forum name is "LT1 King" but don't know his real name.

Yea I use those polishes for removing fine scratches, brake dust, and regular old grime on the wheels. I buy it on the master formula website or the Wenol on ebay. Everyone will tell you to get Mother's Billet Polish but thats like $15 at Autozone. IMO the other polishes I mentioned cost the same or even less for more product and better quality.

Yea the LT1King is my buddy Mario......thanks man

mothers polish and a mini-powerball is what i have been using. Works alright but it takes FOREVER. Usually a whole afternoon of cussing and bitching about how much i hate polished wheels. haha. but when they are clean its so worth the work.

The best bet is to pick up an aluminum wheel cleaner or polish at a parts store. Do not ever put a cleaner or polish on them when they are hot.

metal gloss by master formula is the sh!t, i picked some up at a super chevy show, best metal polish i have ever seen or used

I just put my TT2's on. Has anyone ever tried never dull. Use it on my Stainless exhaust and it works great. I am going to read the can and see if it safe to use on the rims.

yeah i use neverdull when they are just slightly dirty and i don't feel like spending alot of time on them.

im pretty sure you can use neverdull on anykind of metal. put always play it safe and check.

Someone told me about a product called Zoop seal. Has anyone heard of it or know if it is any good?? I saw it in a Summit magazine....its like $100 if i remember correctly.

I use Wizards CottonCandy Metal polish from Napa.

I really like the stuff and it's so easy to use. I just apply, wipe, spray it with some soapy water, and wipe dry.

Here are some before and after pics. I just a real quick job with the wheels still on the car. Here real soon I plan on pulling them off and doing a much better job.

Please excuse the wetwheel on the last pic. And like I said this was just a real quick job to see how well the product work. If I would have taken my time and done it properly, they really would look good.
