Cleaning weld wheels

[Kevin1989]

I just picked up a nice set of welds, what's the best way you guys have found to clean them? Any input would be awesome, can't wait to see these shined up

All by hand with Mothers. That's how I did mine.

kevin look at the last couple pics on my facebook under lg phone pics. my wheels were pretty bad but now they look new!

[Kevin1989]

Hell yea did you use mothers as well, mine are not quite as bad as yours were lol

Get a mothers polishing ball. I've always had great luck with them. Regardless how you do it, you better have 2-3 hours of free time, lol.

I have free time lol, it's being productive without being in the heat!

The mothers ball takes a lot of the work out of it. You can finish by hand, you do need a good drill for the powerball.

[Kevin1989]

I'll have to Take the drill from work then lol

busch aluminum polish hands down ... this stuff turns to a black tarnish just like a jewelry cleaner ... id say 10 min per rim by hand, they will look brand new ..........

[1987coupe]

yep i just used a power ball with mothers wheel polish then finished them by hand and a microfiber cloth with mothers.

Picked up eagle one never dull wadding, and for 30 mins for the 2 front runners I'm happy! They look awesome! I'm slowly detailing them getting little spots but it's easy, I'm sitting on the couch doing it so I'll give it a 8/10 Only cause its smelly lol

I love it when guys ask for recommendations and then don't get any of those products recommended, lol.

[sean]

Mothers mag and aluminum polish on mine. goes on white turns black when it's ready to be wiped off. Its the shit

[sean]

On the other hand, since your not going to listen to what we all are saying and your going to do your own thing..... put them in a dress and take the to glamor shots. After seeing what they can do with some of the pigs they get , they should be able to make your wheels look like a million bucks...

Most of em atleast. Been to only one that didn't .

[heyitsmepugsley]

i used mothers on my convos also. they look like shit right now but when i first did them they looked great.

[Stangman]

Damn I love convo's....

I'm sorry I didn't use your recommendation, I don't have a quality drill at hand for the power ball, so spending the 25 dollars on the power ball wasn't a great choice. I walked out spending 6 dollars on what I bought, the other products people recommended I had to order. I was looking for something to do today so I tried this. They will eventually get a power ball to em.

You could 5 lug that car soo cheap it would make your head spin...

[evil8]

I use McRib bbq sauce and a pickle as the polishing pad. Works great.
