Wheel Care Question

[89GT]

Ok, Not sure where I should have posted this so I picked misc... Anyways, My rims are a bit cloudy and I was wondering what I can do to get them shining again. I have been looking at the Mother's Powerball, but that product seems to be a regular cleaning tool. I think My rims are going to need at least a polish to look really good again. What do you guys use? Or what can you recommend? There are many products out there but would like to find someone with a success story.... Here is a side pic of the car.. granted, it isn't a recent one (previous owner) but they look about the same since I washed them. Thanks in advance. Joe

I run a side detailing business and we use Meguiar's M105 all the time. This is a Mirror Glaze commercial product for compounding paint, but works great on metals too.

You can try Meguiar's Ultimate Compound off the shelf at Walmart or autoparts stores by hand using a foam applicator or you could also try a Powerball or Powercone. Follow up with metal polish of your choice. You can get them looking great by hand, just takes time and patience. Good luck

In fact, you'd be amazed at what a complete paint correction would do for your red Fox. Check out this red fox we color sanded and compounded with M105 (see pages 5 and 6 for final results)

Yeah, you'd be amazed what a simple buff and polish job would do in the hands of a skilled pro.
