dont leave that stuff on your wheels too long, 30 seconds is good. -its caustic & can etch the wheel especially if u clean them in direct sunlight. if u have chrome wheels never use chrome polish unless there rusty. Use soap & water then use windex to remove water spots. Dont clean them in the direct sunlight.

Why not in the direct sunlight?

It makes them dry faster and can waterspot terribly. It also helps to wipe them down as you dry the car, THEN use a cleaner on them, one at a time.

I have chrome pipes on my bike and always use chrome polish. I had some rust on the inner edge of my wheels and used chrome polish with some extra fine steel wool, 2000 grit or whatever it is thats the finest for steel wool. Worked like a charm!

Next time I clean the bike, I'll try the windex thing on the pipes. And the rest of the chrome.

Regardless its after a nice soap and water bath!

I'm not sure, I just know not to use any kind of polish or wax in direct sunlight.

Personally, I wait until a good rainstorm and then I drive through some puddles. If you go fast enough you can wash the whole underside of your car that way!
