Once the 2nd coat of Flex Wax is on, I need to turn my focus to the rims. They all have some staining on them that won't come off with an iron remover or APC. By HAND, a light polish started to remove it, but I was wondering if I should invest in a Mother's Power Ball (drill attachment) to fully polish out the rims. I plan on using Meguiar's Ultimate Compound, since I have it on hand. From the overall appearance of the car when we bought it, it had never been polished and waxed or even cleaned worth a darn, so I KNOW the rims have never been polished.
I won't need the power ball for the Camaro, since it has powder coated steel wheels, but the Escape has painted/cleared rims and they NEED a good polishing, I just don't know that I have the energy to do them by hand. Is the power ball a good idea?
