Aluminum polish
I'm fixing to use wolfgang fine polish and concours polish on my wheels. They look good now just wanting that mirror finish. Should I do this by hand? Or machine? Any other tips? Thanks

Re: Aluminum polish
If you can get a polisher on them use it and if not use your hand. I doing chrome rims in the morning and I will have to use both.

Re: Aluminum polish
I will get one in the a.m. They are looking good now but I hear the cocours polish really does the trick so I bought a whole kit just to have around. How would you compare the polish to mothers or mothers billet polish?

Re: Aluminum polish
The best metal polish iv'e used was (believe or not) an over the counter from advanced called "White Diamond". I spent probably $100 trying to find the right metal polish and that one took the cake, still the only one I use today (the built in sealant is A+ to)
(Compared to Mothers/Meguiars/Blue magic/E1/WG)

I've been using the wolfgang line up of metal polishes and let me tell you it is top notch. I've actually polished out 5 20 foot cargo trailers wrapped in diamond plating that was oxidized horribly. When finished dont make the mistake not to use the wolfgang metal sealant.

+1. You can get it over the counter. I haven't tried many, but this stuff is awesome. It has a sealant in it too.
Made my polished aliuminum wheels look like chrome. I maintain them with Collinite metal wax because it lasts so long and is easy to appply.
