CCW's and Polishing
Was wondering what CCW owners and other polished wheel owners use for cleaning them?
I get mine in the mail hopefully next week... I would like to stack up on polish for when they get dirty. Already have: -Mothers Mag and Aluminum polish -Mothers Metal polish -Mothers Chrome polish Will this stuff do? Anything else I should get? (I have close to 100 microfiber towels already).

For polishing raw aluminum I would just use the Mothers Aluminum polish. Should keep your wheels nice and shiny.

Back when I had Centerline billet wheels on my Mustang, I ONLY used Wenol Metal Polish. I tried other products but Wenol made them look like chrome. So much so that I compared my 3yr old wheels (mind you I ran them during the winter as well) to the same wheel new out of the box...the brand new one looked like crap compared to mine. Having said that, I don't think I'll EVER go back to polished wheel. I don't miss polishing them after every wash...UGH.

Got polished CCW classics for my Datsun Z and I use IronX for brake dust and other contaminants, soap and microfiber wash mit for cleaning and RimWax for sealing. Once a year I use a buffing tool on the drill and a aluminium compound for like new mirror finish!
Works great  |

Awesome! thanks for the feedback.
Nice thing is its just the lip that will be a pain. I love minting out my car so a little extra time on wheels is not a problem for me. I currently wax mine every other wash as it right now... Guess its time to invest in some nice knee pads.
