Semi-Gloss Black Aluminum Wheels-Clean/Polish?

[NY Andrew]

You guys got any special techniques or chemicals you use to clean/polish the gloss aluminum wheels?

I clean with a sock the wheel and then hot shine it. Don’t have any specific things for rims besides Sonax Wheel Cleaner which I’m not sure is anything special honestly oh and a wheel/rim brush.

Thanks!

Well the finish is not aluminum anymore. Is the finish supposed to be glossy or matte on your wheels?

Well as per my window sticker I kept, says exactly what title states. Semi-Gloss Aluminum. It was part of the upgraded Sport package. Seems like aluminum gloss to me in person.

Well they are powder coated so that would be paint on aluminum wheels. You can try just normal car paint polish would make them pop a little more. I used this stuff on my old car with black wheels worked good.
