Hey all...

So, as mentioned in my suspension topic, my Zuffenhaus Fuchs have been subjected to bad weather and poor maintenance by me (a lesson I have now learned), and I need to remove the pitting and water stains, etc from them.

I got some mothers aluminum wheel polish and one of those polishing ball things (the cone one, actually, I figured the shape was better suited to the task.) I'm hoping that I got the right product to do this.

Since ive never done this before, I'm not really expecting perfection, but I really really miss the beautiful shiny finish of the polished outer lips.

Also, once I do polish them, what can I put on the heels to help them better last in between basic cleanings?

It was a matter of two weeks after I got the wheels that they started looking noticably worse, and I think I just got dismayed and figured that I would take care of them later, but haven't really done anything at all since I got them in August of last year. I know, I'm an idiot. I fully get that, so please don't get on me for my lack of caring for them at the time.

I'm hoping that applying a couple coats of high quality wax will provide the best protection. I'm looking for something where it will be more than two weeks before I'm seeing big white spots on the aluminum, ya know?

If I can just wipe them off every couple weeks or so, ok. But knowing I have a bit more of a buffer time-wise would be really cool.

Thanks in advance everyone. I really appreciate it.
