WELD racing wheels

the wheels are not bare aluminum, so im not worried about oxidizing...there is a coating on them as far as i know...and i never said there was anything wrong with polisishing wheels, but when the car is your daily driver, meaning it sees rain, and gets driven to every show every day of the week, you dont always have time to come home from a full day of work and polish wheels...im confident that the wax and detailing spray will work, it has worked for many others, so im not too concerned8)

Mshred, I'm on your side just trying to help out. I wasn't knocking you for polishing your wheels, I used to enjoy the pride I felt after my wheels were freshly polished and your right, it's not always easy to find the time. I'm only trying to give you some advice here. Probably 95% of polished aluminum aftermarket wheels are bare aluminum, if they had a coating you would be able to clean them but you couldn't polish them. I work with billet aluminum all day long with my machine shop and also own an aluminum anodizing company, if wax and detailer worked to protect the aluminum then people wouldn't be bringing so much stuff to be clear anodized. I'm not trying to make you feel bad here, just trying to give you the benefit of my experience, sorry if it came off the wrong way. Kev
