Use megs wheel brightener. Work 1 wheel at a time. I've done it many times and it works great.

Can you buy it over the counter? Because I already have Sonax?

Just my 2 cents... your sonax with a magic eraser will be much quicker and produce great results. We use that combo at my shop all the time.
