Is there a specific product that will clean these wheels so they will shine like new again? I am in California. My wheels are really dingy looking.

Thanks, Paul

I don't know exactly how Honda wheels are made...a lot of US alloys from the 90's were clear coated, and the clear yellows from UV exposure, pits from brake dust, and darkens over time.

The solution was to buy a can of aircraft stripper, spray it on them, and obliterate the coating, which leaves the metal under it like new...then you only have to keep them clean so they don't get bad fast...or you can reclear them...

Otherwise, if they are uncoated you'll have to try something either like a mechanical buffing, or some kind of acid treatment (muriatic acid or something). There are some cleaners you could try, but I can't think of a good one at the moment...if I do, I'll post it...
