I thought I`d do a detail on my rims using some of Adam`s Polishes #1 and #2 followed up with Poorboys Wheel Sealant on my billet rims.
Below are a few pictures after cleaning. The rim appears to be in decent shape but are dull with a haze and lacks shine:
Yeah, it could be better than this!

A close up of surface reveals tiny surface scratches and marring.

The polish leaves a haze after polishing that is easily wiped clean. The darker black areas of the haze is reminents of the polish at work.

Here is the rim after using Adam`s Polish #1

A close-up of the rim shows how the surface has become noticeabley smoother.

Here is the rim after using Adam`s Polish #2. In general I think if your wheels are kept up you could probably get away with just using Adam`s Polish #2 to help maintain the shine.

Here`s a final picture with wheel sealant applied:

Poorboys wheel sealant is great and provides extra protection. I swear the wheel shines even more after 2 layers.
The Final picture. Rim detailed with Adam`s Polishes #1,#2 and 2 coats Poorboys Wheel Sealant:

Feel free to leave any advice or comments. You guys are a wealth of knowledge and I don`t think I would have near the knowledge if it wasn`t for all my reading here!! I got 3 more wheels to finish...
