ive got a set of the kmc dimes black with wut looks like a polished stainless lip nothing works on the lip everything i try including stainless polish and a microfiber cloth gives the lip a foggy appearence and tiny little micro scratches....anyone know something i dont

Try some of the polishes with a mothers powerball

[lowlife113]

im not really sure though because everything that i rub on doesnt come off shiny its a very foggy look

[mikeharris]

I used turtle wax chrome polish on mine with the powerball, it worked really well. Just make sure not to let the powerball dry out, you gotta use a bunch of polish

and that is a polished stainless lip on yours?

[WildChevys]

try a polish called: magic mix, it works wonders

[mrkemble]

I like smithbrite's line of wheel polish and cleaners. They work miracles.

mothers mag and aluminum polish works good...
ifs its foggy keep polishing

chemical isnt everything sometimes its in the technique

Have you tried Eagle one "Never Dull"? I used that on my polished wheels with great success.

[mikeharris]

I used the Blue Magic wheel polish today, it worked great

[lowlife113]

where do i get some of that...any auto store?

[mikeharris]

yeah i picked mine up from autozone, like 6 bucks. just go by the directions and it worked great.

I just put new 24" Driv Tantrums on my truck.. polished them with a MICROFIBER cloth. better than a ****en terry towel supposed to be scratch free but it left blue swirl marks/scratches on my lip!!! I was using mothers chrome polish and I used more than enough for each rim.. but it still left those swirls!!! Any help on getting those out or am I done?
These wheels aren't even a month old and they got a lil swirl..
i can live with it but i hate it there too new

[lowlife113]

i know exactly what you are feeling my rims are only about a month old also....by the way i was waxing my truck kind of pissed off about my rims so i decided to rub a little of the maguires i was using on my rims and it worked!! go figure i would have never guessed car polish would work but now i just need to get rid of those little sratches also...anyone?

[Toclcl]

so you rubbed car polish on your wheels??
maybe a buffer could take the swirls out of the wheels? i have a 6" chrome lip and it doesn't fancy me to see ANY swirls.. whatsoever..
