The wheels are uncoated Aluminum and are made by CCW.



I used a Mothers Powerball and Busch Super Aluminum Shine Polish (http://www.cecodist.com/b44008.htm)



Manufactor Claim: Restores brilliance to dull uncoated aluminum wheels. Can be applied by hand or power buffed. Black residue wipes off easily and washes off hands with common soap and water. Provides a long lasting brilliant shine with superior resistance to dulling.



I tried a little of the Mothers billet polish, but like using the busch liquid better.



I used a small towel and wiped it onto the section of the wheel I was doing.



I have a 2 speed dewalt cordless so I used the low speed to work it in. Once it was worked in I finished at the higher speed. I then wiped the black residue with a cotton towel. The residue came off very easy.



left is done and right is not:

Looks great.

I have the same Michelin PilotSports Runflat tires on my C5 (5 spoke polish Aluminum). :cool:

I have been using the Mother billet polish and Powerball with great success. Might try the Busch just for a change of pace. :wavey

Come on, you own the company right? :cool:



I think my buddy got it at a truck stop for like $15.

His are the non-runflat version and the rears are about done.



I just seems to me that a liquid version is easier to work with.

He is still using the tire monitoring valves I see.



I agree, a liquid version should be easier to use. I have seen Busch products in many motorcycle shops. :xyxthumbs
