Post Polished alluminium?

I need something to use on my polished alluminium wheels that makes them shine, but doesn't take forever to use. I have mother' mag and alluminium polish, and it works great, but it take like 3 hours to do all my wheels. Is there anything quicker?

I like Eagle1's NevrDull wadding metal restorer. It's cheap, easy and effective...

Other than that, Blue Magic Metal Polish has two different metal polishes, one is a paste similar to the Mother's and the other is a roll of quick wipes in a can. I've seen the wipes at AutoZone in the wheel cleaning section of the car care. Those wipes are supposed to be quicker than the metal polish...

I use Magic Mix Metal polish because it is very fast to use and does a good job.

Well, if the wheels are clean and you're just looking for a good shine have you thought of using zaino? The stuff lasts forever and it's VERY easy to apply/remove. My wheels are almost blinding in direct sunlight after just one coat.
