Need some better Polish for my wheels
I've been using Mother's for a while, but I need a better product to keep my billet aluminum wheels looking shiny. What other product do you guys recommend?

X-treme Metal Polish. I've tried alot of different polishes and this stuff beats everything hands down. IMO It's also made in Denton, Texas so you should be able to find it. It won't be at any national parts stores, you will probably have to find it at a specialtiy store somewhere in texas. The great thing about this polish is you can do all your wheels then come back and clean them off and polish them up. It's non-abrasive, it works by chemical reaction. The company that makes it is Hulcher Enterprises Inc. Here is a site that shows what it looks like.http://www.pim.net/xpage.html. Don't let the size fool ya (3.oz) don't seem like a lot but this stuff goes a long way. It looks like a ball of pink cotton, and it doesn't take but a little peice to do one wheel.

Yes X-treme polish is safe for all billet wheels. Where I live in Norman, Ok it runs about $9.00. and No NAPA or Autozone doesn't carry it. You will have to find it a specitaltiy wheel shop or order it off the web. I promise if you get some, you will not be dissappointed. Eagle One just came out with a new Billet polish that I think I will give a try also, I don't think it's in stores yet but Autozone will carry it when it does come out.

Is that Eagle one released yet? Is it like a cloth type stuff like Nevr Dull cause I kinda hate the liquid polish......much easier to get into grooves with a cotton polish...! Anyone find out what stores sell X-treme Metal polish yet????
