Question Quick question

What is the recommended compound or polish used to use on SBC finished wheels? I need to clean them up , and I remember hearing that you need certain polish or compound.
Thanks in advance
Tony

they are a low-heat powdercoat, you want to "polish" them? In general the finish is harder than the compound you will use.

If you refer to the dark "smudges" they get when scuffed then you are the proud owner of a wheel with imperfections. Not much you can do.

What i've tried:
Menerza Power Finish
3M Perfect It III
Wolfgang swirl remover 3

Using:
Porter cable with coarse green pad

Its definitely not smudges, it looks like some hard water spots, and it kind of feels like very light overspray. I'll try and wash it with some water and soap and see what happens. Thanks for the info
