Re: Best cleaner Alumastar wheels?
I'm with Ed on this one. What do you use to CLEAN them? Everyone has their own favourite elixir to polish them and I have tried Autosol, Mothers and Alcoa and they all seem to be pretty much the same (lots of time and elbow grease). But what is best / easiest to use for regular wash up and clean aluminum wheels and trailer trim when giving it a bath? Doug

Re: Best cleaner Alumastar wheels?
I use Aluma-Kleen a product of Bio-Kleen available @ Redneck Trailer Supplies It removes oxidation, discoloration and stains. It is not a polish strickly a cleaner. You have to shine them up after the cleaning process. They also have a polish but we use Mothers

Re: Best cleaner Alumastar wheels?
I highly recommend California Custom De-Oxidizer and Purple Polish.
Most truck shops stock it and use it because it is the easiest. I do use Flitz for stains, but this polish blows it away. I got it from a neighbor at Mack Truck Sales-Leasing at his cost for about $9/bottle. We have a little real estate to keep clean, and this stuff works effortlessly.  Clark |

Re: Best cleaner Alumastar wheels?
I've used them all over the past 30+ years and none better nor require so little effort for a fantastic shine as Brooklyn Ball Buster Polish Cleaner
 The Brooklyn Ball Buster puts two nuts in every bottle. He says, "The third's behind the wheel". |
