Great Product review: Flitz!!
I POsted a similar thread alst year, But i just gont done detailing my wheels, and i could not believe the results i got with this stuff. Many have seen the infomercial, but i have a detail guy that swears by this stuff. I bought it at at marine store. It's great for polished alluminum wheels, mine were pitted badly, and it made them disappear!!!
IT came with an orbital buff ball that i put on my drill, and cut the time in half.
I highly remmened it, espeacially if you dont have a clear coat on the wheels!!!

Thanks! There have been many reviews and posts in the past concerning Flitz in the Car Care Products section of the Forum. You don't want to use it on clear coated wheels though as it will scratch these.

I would not use Flitz on my paint, therefore I would not used it on my OEM polished aluminum rims because they are clear coated just like the paint. If they are not coated then it is ok.

Another one is Autosolvo. Which is about the same as Flitz. After many hours with these products they will eventually do in chrome finishes. Everything that polishes is abrasive. Mother's is the least abrasive and also Never Dull. So once something is clean use the product that is the least abrasive. And Mother's protects very well. There's my .02
