Share your wheel reconditioning secrets?

I was wondering how you guys clean up oxidized aluminum wheels. Mine aren't too bad, just ugly.

Thanks

I was wondering the same... Im sure there are products out there that will do the trick.

If you can get hold of a Dremel tool the little polishing buff does a great job.

I glass bead the hubs and then spray them with clear coat. On the brake plates, I fine sand them as needed and then use a buffing wheel and rouge to polish them up.

Check-out Kyle Moody's responses to my post of 2/24/09 entitled "RESTORING LIL INDIAN RIMS". He did a great job on that bike and offered-up some good information.

All the best.

I media blast and then spray with silver Dupli-Color wheel paint.
