Mothers Billet polish for the shine and Eagle One Never Dull to remove the water spots. Takes elbow grease, but it will work.

Has anyone ever measured the offsets on these wheels? I know CCW won't give them out. It would be nice to know

Cleaning CCWs? A power drill, and cotton mushroom buffs for me along with English Custom Polishes...for stubborn spots that I don't feel like spending forever on, I'll wet sand with 2000 grit sandpaper, followed by polishing with my corded drill.

Grab some 2000 grit sandpaper and a spray bottle, and spray the area you are working on with water from the spray bottle while you are sanding. It keeps the paper from getting clogged...

It takes a lot of elbow grease to get out the water spots. I highly recommend putting zoop seal on them. No more water spots and I haven't polished mine in 6 months and they still look like new.
