Has anyone had experience with restoring the mirror like shine to rims? My rims are not that old probably 5-6 yrs old. I think they're aluminum but not sure, they could be chrome. What I've tried so far: soap & water, break dust remover, mag & wheel cleaner, muthers polish, blue magic polish, someother polish that I can't recall but it was like a long strip of cotton that you tear off piece by piece as you polish & last but not least..steel wool. Now the blue magic worked great on some areas but mostly what I have is a whitish haze on my rims. Someone suggested water & a fine grade sandpaper but I'm afraid I will damage them further. I talked to a detail shop but all they could offer me was a new set of rims (naturally) Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
