cleaning my wheels
Does anyone know how I can get the alumminum wheels on my firebird to shine like new. Any techniques or products I should uses.
I cleaned on one for a good 30 mins and it still dosesn't look that great.
Please help.

Re: cleaning my wheels
First wash them with soapy water.Dry.
Get yourself some Meguires aluminium polish, some microfiber towels, and go to town.I think it took me about 10 hours to fix the rims on my truck but they were really beat up from 4 wheelin and I hadnt polished them in about 3 years.
Another thing to do is once you get them all shiny again wax them.I use the Meguires NXT.Keeps them lookin nice for longer.
