[DeTomaso] Suggested best polish for newish rims

Tue Jun 25 15:07:33 EDT 2024

I prefer the Mequires Aluminum polish that leaves the better luster after cleaning with the Mothers foam ball and polish system.

No, it's bare aluminum. No clear coat.

I've polished them before, years ago. PITA. But was wondering if there was anything better from you Pantera guru's
out there.

Might depend on if you are polishing aluminum or polishing a clear coating over aluminum?

Years ago (2013 maybe, haven't found the invoice) I had Don Byars (RIP)
install new A-Arms,

shocks, springs and traded my old rims for some new 17" with new
rubber. $$ but WOW did

that make my Pantera ride like new.

But it's been sitting too long in storage and now I need to polish the
rims again. Along with 100

other things to do.

I believe the rims were the Campagnolo style Billet Aluminum wheels?
Correct me if I'm wrong.

What is the best polish to use to bring them back to life!
