Wheel Polishing
Scott,

Busch Products makes a great wheel polish and a wax that helps the
shine last. They also supply buffs that will fit an angle polisher
or a drill (slower). See FMC magazine for an advertisement. They
usually attend the RITV and many Bird owners swear by their products.

IMO, polished wheels far outshine the so-called "never need
polishing" type that come with a clear-coat that dulls the finish.
Your aluminum wheels will require some upkeep but you will be
pleased by the superior shine over the coated type. The Busch wax
really helps the shine last, thereby reducing the frequency of re-
polishing. Although, once polished, keeping the wheels bright is
easier.
Depending on how bad the wheels are will determine whether you need
to sand away scratches first. If you do a Google search for aluminum
wheel polishing, you will find many references and instructions from
detailers.
