    Best product for polished wheels?

    I have CCW SP500's on my WS6 which are a very high polished non clear coated wheel.

    I rarely drive the car as it is my every other weekend cruiser which never see's rain/snow/etc.

    What would be the best products to use on my wheels to seal them as best as possible and make upkeep easier/etc?
    I'm going to re-polish them this week and would like to top them off with whatever will work best to keep them looking their best.

    I got to try out some wenol polishes and they work. I cant comment on how they compare with other polishes as i have yet to do a side by side. wenol blue if they are coated wenol red if they are blank. Both leave behine a protective film.

    I remember the P21S wheel cleaner mentioned before

    Any reason to go with DP vs. PoorBoy's and vice versa?

    DP has a light cleaner in it also, Poorboys does not. Personal preference. Most other wheel cleaners contain acids and lye that can immediately scar an uncoated wheel for life. I run Iforged uncoated wheels, and over two years have basically tried it all.
