I have a set of polished TT II wheels

I have owned them for about 4 years now I need a little help cleaning them...

WHAT are you tips and suggestions...

What brands work best....

Techniques?

thanks

 

On my polished Weld Pro-Stars, I've used Mothers Aluminum Polish for the rough cleanup, followed by the Mothers Incredible Billet Polish. Produces a very high shine that seems to last a long time. Generally just use a soft cotton towel to apply and remove, although if they were dull enough, I'd recommend a good quality fine-weave cotton buff on a drill, Dremel, or flex-shat. The Eastwood Company has some excellent prouducts for polishing metals.

On a kind of on/off topic follow up question, does anyone have any suggestions on how to mend or at least help to cover a nick in a polished wheel?

 

Light sanding with sandpaper, of the grit no coarser than required to remove the nick or scratch, followed by finer and finer grits to about 1,000-grit. Then some rouge and good metal polish.

Make sure your polished wheels are not clear coated. If they are, the clear coat will need to be touched up when you are done.

 

Great Thanks for the info, I am going to test it on a spot that is small first to see how it works out and then tackle the rest of the wheel in question and hopefully get some pics up for anyone else interested in fixing a polished wheel.
