Whats the best way to get Dirt stains off Polish lips ??

 

Polish them lol . You can use a aluminum polish like mothers , i like optimum metal polish however and a mothers powerball . If that doesnt help you will have to wetsand b4 polishing . I your not comfortable doing it take it to a rim place . Make sure they are polished though and have no clearcoat

 

The answer to your question depends on what rims you have and if they still have the clear coat. If you've had the clearcoat removed and wheels polished like I did you can use Mothers or Adams metal polish. If not you can use any cleaner wax after you've washed them....very good! They also sell Wheel Wax but I was never satisfied with the results.

thanks..

 

is there a difference between wheel wax and reg. wax?

 

How would you know if your rims have clear coat?

 

Back in the day when I had a clear coat on my Volks I used Zymol cleaner wax with good results and was never satisfied with Wheel Wax!
If you have OE wheels chances are you have a clear coat. If you have aftermarket wheels and you haven't had them polished you should have a clearcoat. You do not want to use Mothers metal polish on wheels with a clearcoat or any other metal polish....you'll destroy the clearcoat.

Thanks Gary.

 

poorboys wheel sealant is all you need, others are subpar

 

^ I use the same! It's a PITA to use it on the wheel face though .

 

I have a set of Work Varianza T1S rims, what product should I use to keep them as clean as possible for the longest amount of time

 

ya a bit, i like what it does for the lips but i don't personally see the difference when using on the face

 

How long your rims stay clean doesn't depend on what you clean them with but what kind of brake pads you're using. When I was running OE pads I couldn't drive 6 blocks without my rims being caked with black brake dust. So I switched to HAWK HP brake pads and I can drive all day without them being loaded up with dust. A good coat of wax will keep them looking nice once you've cleaned em....

windex and paper towels XD

 

A far better idea would be "Detail Spray" and your old "Honda" t-shirts....
