What size wheels can I fit?  Group: Members Posts: 4,645 Joined: 5-April 05 From: Scottsdale, AZ Member No.: 3,881 Region Association: Southwest Region   |
I have polished 2 liters(replicas if it matters) and I decided to try and make my life easier by using a "SAFE FOR ANY WHEEL" cleaner made by Black Magic. So I let the wheel completely cool per the instructions. Sprayed the cleaner on, hosed it off, wiped it off only to find my wheel completely farked up!!

I tried shining them up with the Eagle One polish. It helped a lot but didn't get them back to 100%. Any ideas? Will I need to go at the wheels with a fine sandpaper and then a machine? Is there a miracle product that can get them back for me? Attached image(s)
