I'd use car wash soap and water, and use simple green for stubbern dirt, dont use an acid wheel cleaner, it'll dull the finish.

Ok, so no special chrome wheel cleaner or chrome polish or anything like that? Just simple water and of course Zaino wash? Sounds good! Thanks!

 

Claybar your rims and then put some Zaino on 'em. It helps ALOT for future cleaning. Brake dust and other crap comes off much easier. As for periodic washing, just use what you would on your car (Zaino, Meguiars, etc. . .) with a separate sponge of course.

I just bought chrome wheels 2 weeks ago. You must WAX THE $HIT OUT OF THEM. I couldn't get wax in the ring around the lugs, and they already started to rust in that spot. Make sure you wax the wheels asap!

 

So if I am goin to Zaino these wheels, I should clay them, and proceed like I would on the car? Z1 then Z2 etc? Can I use Z6 (spray) on them? I just didnt know that the regular Zaino stuff is ok to use on chrome wheels.

 

You can use any product on chrome that you can use on the paint in the Zaino line up. Chrome is quite easy to car for actually, about the only thing that can mess it up good is those spray on acid cleaners, stay away from those.
