Hey everyone. I got me some pretty dirty alloys and I was wondering how all of you keep your rims nice and shiny. What products do you use, and how do you use it? Let us know!!!

I use an old wash mit and the remaining car wash I used to wash the rest of the car.

It depends on the finish. Chrome is different than machined aluminum is different than painted/clearcoat.

Generally gentlest is best. I was my alloys (painted/clearcoated) to make future cleanings easier.

Hey louie1086,

If your wheels are coated then here is what I do!

1-Degreaser
2-Soft Soft Brush
3-Hose Down
4-Dry
5-Polish
6-Wax
7-Adam's Brilliant Spray Glaze

I apply 5,6,and 7 with Microfiber Products!

Let me know if this Helps!

Thanks,
