  • Corroded aluminum

    I just had new tires placed on my 2002 GMC Denali Xl and when they relocated the wheel weights I have a small amount of corrosion and I am wondering the best way to get this off. Any ideas?

    What kind of wheels? Painted aluminum, clear coated, a bare metal?

      If bare metal, use Mag and Aluminum polish, but that is only if bare.

      I once put swirls in my paint just to see what it looked like.

      I don't always detail cars, but when I do, I prefer Meguiar's.
      Remove swirls my friends.

          You would want to treat clear coat like paint.

          So you can wash, clay if wanted, then use a paint cleaner, even wax if you like.

          If you already have a paint cleaner, like DC1, SwirlX, etc, give it a shot.
