Cleaning machined aluminum wheels

[imported_wagsjr]

A friend of mine wants his harley done and my biggest concern is the wheels. They are machined aluminum. Using mothers or megs aluminum polish makes a crazy mess and seems some spots look great and some dont. The rag constantly comes up black. I dont want to be responsible for ruining anything so maybe some suggestions or shouldnt be using that? BTW I havent done it yet. Just know from experience

Try Mothers Billet Polish and plan to use a few microfiber cloths. The Billet comes in a smaller container about the size of a glass shoe polish container and costs about $18 around here. Not cheap but it goes a pretty long way and works great on that kind of thing.

Not to say this is the only way, just the way I`m doing it till someone suggests something I haven`t tried. Then I`ll try that and if it works better, that`ll be the way I do it, till the next change.
