    c6 wheels

    My 06 vette has aluminum wheels. Does anybody know if they have a clearcoat on them? Can they be polished? Thanks

    I believe GM clearcoats even polished aluminum wheels. In that case, use a paint polish on your wheels

    Your wheels "should" be clear coated and likely are. These easiest way to tell is to rub a light metal or paint polish on an inconspicuous area of the wheel (clean it first). If you see any black residue on the towel then they are uncoated.
