I need a cleaner and sealer for uncoated aluminum rims. Anybody have a product that works the better than the other? I have Mothers Powerballs and polish. It does a nice job. Takes a while and doesn't seal it.

I believe DP makes a wheels sealant. I've also used Klasse on wheels, works pretty wheel.

1. P21S Wheel Cleaner ---safe on uncoated aluminum

2. P21S Polishing Soap --- removes tarnish on a monthly basis

3. Mothers Powerball Mini and English Custom Polish --- Show winning shine

4. DP Wheel Glaze or Optimum Opti-seal --- Protection

Here's one that I got reading Sparkie's reviews.
Duragloss Metal Cleaner & Brightener #831 (http://www.autogeek.net/duragloss-metal-cleaner---brightener-831.html)

yes..the #831 does a nice job of cleaning aluminum....but you still have to protect it after....I use 831 to clean the back parts of my mags..it gets them spotless..then I seal them since they are un coated...I have used either collinite or Caldwell metal sealant...both work very good at protecting them..

I'm glad that Al answered you. The only place that I've used my #831 is on my tail pipe. Did a good job with that.
