You may want to apply Xtreeme with a drill (buffing wheel).;)
sounds like you have some tough ones. Xtreeme is the best I've tried. You just need to work it in there, If not you may need to send it to a proffesional to do it. Years back I took my (then) 95 to get worked done at the dealer. They got some crap on my Boyds that I couldn't get out. They sent them out to get them polished.

:guns: Water spots
I hate those things:mad:

I think the reason why they have all the water spots is because I left them on all winter like an idiot. I changed the wheels on the S-10 and the Prelude but for some reason I didn't my fullsize. I'll give it another go around and if that doesn't work I'll have them professionally done. Thanks for the help. :cool:

I don't know how well it works on metal, but claybar does wonders for spots on my paint.

Will that work on my Billet wheels?

It dissolves the minerals in the waterspots (which is all a waterspot is as long as the surface isnt etched) and presto

I feel you on this post. I have a few on my Boyd Coddingtons most went away with Meguiars All metal polish but some didnt. I think in about 6 months I will send em out to getprof. polished....will that also getrid of pitting in th inside of the rim since its fully polished and make em like new? How much is a fair price for 20's insideand out? LIke $400? I guess this is a benefit having polished over chrome! My friend is thinkin about getin chrome 20's if he does mess one up how much will it be to get those re-dipped? Thanxs! I need opnions!
