BTRSS Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I'm starting to detail my Camaro for a show tomorrow and want to clean my chrome rims. After cleaning with the green wheel cleaner should I use the metal polish 1 and 2 or something else for chrome? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 JBlack151 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I always like to throw a coat of Brilliant Glaze on chrome if the rims aren't in bad shape. That stuff just really makes chrome pop! You can try a test area with some MP1 and MP2 first to see if you really find a difference, however you could end up with quite the project with all those rivets on your wheels. No matter what you end up doing consider throwing some Quick Sealant on them when you're done to preserve your work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BTRSS Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 The rims are in very good shape so I'll go with the brilliant glaze. If it does to the wheels what is did for the paint, it'll be perfect! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 cyberLS Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 i used the metal polish 1 and 2 and the chrome lip on my wheels came out great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 THE Mook Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Those wheels are sexy! I would suggest picking up some Quick Sealant to keep them protected from the elements! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BTRSS Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 wondering if anyone has a way to clean between those pesky nuts. I spent about 3 hours on them by hand with using Adams #1 polish and a microfiber towel and ALOT of elbow grease and while it worked ok it's not perfect.
