Challenger wheels

[frankprozzoly]

I haven't touched the car yet. Supposed to be nice this weekend. I guess my wheels would be considered polished aluminum. How do I polish them without making them look like chrome

[FUNX650]

Are they clearcoated?

From the looks of your wheels, they are a clearcoated. No way you can make them look like chrome. Just a good washing and then put some wax on them, just as you would your paint.
BTW: Nice car.

If they are clear coated just clean normally. Otherwise you can strip the clear coat and polish the aluminum that way

They probably are clear coated. I don't know for sure

Mine are clear coated . I polished by hand with 205 and coated them with dlux

The owners manual should explain wheel finish care for your set of wheels.

As stated above they are clear-coated. Clean them like you would your car with a good soap. then a coat of wax or sealant....

Do not use anything abrasive .............

They probably are clear coated. I don't know for sure
Here's a tried and true method of determining
if they are ClearCoated or not:

-Put a dab of a polish (I'll often use M205)
on a white cloth;

-Take it and rub it on a low visibility area of the wheel;

-If the cloth doesn't turn black: Stop...immediately!
Your wheel is likely coated.

-If it turns black...your wheel is likely uncoated.

They are cleared, hand polish and coat with the product from a company I can't name that holds up better than d lux. Pm me

Clean and maintain like you would with any painted / clearcoated wheel.

To protect, nothing easier than Hydro2! Spray on, Spray off! BAM DONE!
