Default Advice on Fat Boy Solid wheels please

Hi All,

I'm looking for the best and easiest way to clean these wheels. They are not pitted but def have some spots around the outside of the rim,

FYI I am kind of lazy so I guess I'm looking for the easiest way to clean them up....lol Without paying someone to detail the bike. I'll prob get that done before the winter

Thanks in advance

Or you can try Wenol, that's what I use for all my chrome - it polishes just about everything.

Thanks guy's! I'll look into those. Do you hand rub these or can you use a buffer?

I use the Autosol metal polish on the rear wheel of my Nightrain, I just use a rag and my hand although you could use a buffer if you can get it in there, if its quite bad you'll no doubt have to go over it 2or 3 times.

We use Mother's Mag Polish and Neverdull. Works like a charm, but it takes a lot of elbow-grease.

I've tried many products of various brands. S100 Polishing Soap is the easiest to use and provides the best results.
