Anyone ever use "GORD'S Aluminum Polish"?

Was looking around for some wheel polish, since I had to get my wheels refinished, and ran across Gord's Aluminum Polish.. It's applied with steel wool and polish, then a MF towel, and buffed out. Anyone familiar with this at all? Would this be a good idea for to try out, give me your opinions.. Thanks

Gords

How did they come out? And would you try it on some Work rims with polished lips? No clear coat, was removed when sent in for polishing. Or do you think it would scratch them up using that steel wool? Thanks for the reply..

Using any grade of steel wool on my wheels seems like a very bad idea but then it depends on the wheels. I use Mothers aluminum polish and both Adams blue and pink for the final finish. Never heard of Gords and I thought I'd tried everything.

Thanks for the info

Felt the same about the steel wool, but was wondering if anyone had tried it yet? I checked out Adam's products, but couldn't find the blue and pink you spoke of. Gonna try checking it out again, but would appreciate it if you could tell me the product name. I agree mother's works well, but just need the other two to see how it comes out. I got poorboys wheel sealant coming in the mail, so trying to gather all the product I need to hit the wheels before locking it all in.. I was actually thinking about using some jewelers rouge to make them pop again, before sealing it.. Any recommendations/tips for, or against, using rouge would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the reply
