Mothers metal polish for chrome or polished aluminum surfaces.

Windex

Get a wheel cleaner from Kragen. A lot easier to clean spokes. Especially spokey ones like yours.

Bling bling blingitly bling.

I use soap and warm water

First of all, hose off loost dirst then use soap and warm water. I try to stay away from those chemicals because it could stain the polish lips. It happens to a friend of mine on his Blitz 03 wheels. I think that soap and warm water is the safest way in my opinions. Then dry it up with a clean towel and last I use mother wheel polish to shine it and it will give your polish wheels that shiny looks and it also protects it also.
