Wheels cleaners like that are NOT made for polished wheels that are uncoated like CCWs. You just need to polish them. I had a similiar reaction on a couple spots on my GHL Bullet Exhaust tips and I used Poorboys Professional Polish for removal. I would contact CCW and see if they recomend a polish to use. You'll get them looking good again-it just might take some time.

You should not use that on polished or chrome wheels. You may try a product called noxon 7. It is a very powerfull chrome, ss, polish and worked great on a set of polished Z06 wheels I used to have. I believe they sell it at autozone and advance. You may even need to use a small polishing wheel like with a dremel. Good luck!

Use some "neverdull" then some mothers billet mag and wheel polish and they will look like new again, not a big problem, just a lot of work and elbow grease, you're hands and fingers will be tired after doing all that...

No soap that I know of will get that off. Just polish the wheels. There is really no easy way to keep polished wheels looking polished. After you polish you can wax them and that helps, but it's not a fix. You will have to polish your wheels, much like you must wash the car. Your wheels a far from destroyed, relax!

Nope...their ruined! I'll give you $10 a wheel for them....
Sorry couldn't resist. I am sure they will polish right up, but that HAS to be a horrible feeling knowing that THAT is what they look like sitting out in your garage right now.... Good Luck man

Being polished aluminum have good and bad sides... the bad is that they will mark up, tarnish and get dirty easy... the Good, is that with elbow grease ... a product like mothers billet polish and a few hours of rubbing and rubbing and rubbing... they will shine up like new. Enjoy

Buy a Mother's powerball and some Mother's billet wheel,polish. The powerball will reduce the effort needed to repolish the wheels. Use Eagle 1 wheel cleaner next time, it won't ruin the polish. Also, make sure the wheels are cool, do not use the cleaners after driving the car. Warm wheels can have that happen.

The guys are giving you the right advice man, it's just going to take some elbow grease and a lot of it. This is one of those Saturday morning, sit on a little stool and rub your ball and socket joint raw. Something that would attach to a drill might speed up the process but elbow grease is going to be the lonely road you may have to go down.
