Hey guys like title says, I'm starting to polish my rims, I actually have off bike, as motors out being sent to Hillside for a 107' kit, but thats not why I'm here, I'm using Simichrome that the Harley dealership recommended, and if I say so, works great!!!!. I'm never going to have my rims home like this, taking rotors off, as replacing with chrome bolts, its a 2008 Rocker C, with 3k miles so rims are in Like New condition, Question is, How do I SEAL the polish in, so its just a wipe down, or cleaning? can I use this stuff for engines, I heard of a clear coat auto spray? not so crazy about that idea, so please, I'm going be knuckle bleeding next 2 days after work, getting these as good as I can, as going chrome, just is not in the budget right now...haha thanks
I polished the outer lip on the rims and the rotors of my 2013 Street Glide. Sealed them with White Diamond. It's a polish with sealer. Wash with soap and wipe with a chamois. Look great!

so you never had to polish again, what your saying is just wash and the chamois to dry, and alls good? I was going to bring by my buddy auto body shop, have him hit a light clear coat over final finished product to 'lock in all my hard work' till I do chrome rims, hold me over next few months ,looking a lil better, and a wipe down, they get dull TO EASY Harley screwed us over a ROCKER C. HARLEY ;C; CHROME, EVERYTHING ELSE IS LOL
Mine have only been done since last October but 5,000 miles and a couple dozen washes and they are still mirror polished. Plan for the winter is to polish them again with White Diamond and a Power Ball and then wipe down with a microfiber cloth.
Posted a write up in the Tire/Wheel section with a couple pictures. Search Polished Airstrikes. Much better in person than the pictures.
