&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&n bsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; I tried many different products.....The " Harley spray&nbsp\\; cleaner &amp\\; polish " works the best.
&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&n bsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbs p\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\ \;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\ ; It also gives some life to the denim paint.

The best I'v found is Mothers billit alum polish and a powerball.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; Some stock wheels can shine, and others' can't.&nbsp\\; The smooth poliched part shines up real nice.&nbsp\\; The as-cast surface never looks all that good.&nbsp\\;

I've been using Mothers Mag and Aluminum polish for 30 years. Nothing better..period. About $4.00 a jar at Walmart.&nbsp\\; Works great on my '08 Anniversary Lowrider wheels and and any of the chrome on the engine and pipes.
