Cleaning Cast Rims
I have an 04 Low Rider with the original cast wheels with the black, they are looking a little weathered. What do you guys use to bring them back to life?

Try spraying on automitive wheel cleaner for removing disk brake dust 1st.Then rinse it off real well. will clean up the painted parts real well before you use anything on the aluminum unpainted surfaces..

I've also been using "Shout" on the rims. Seems to be very gentle on the polished aluminum. When you are done washing, polish the aluminum with "Mothers Aluminum and Mag Polish, works wonders. I've got the silver rims and it keeps them like new. 02 FXD.
