So I have a set of Work rims, and ever since the dealer cleaned my car after they fixed some recalls my rims have like a blueish tint film thing over them with like water or cleaner stains on them. Does anyone have any suggestions on cleaning products for my rims that would help fix this and make them look good again? Heavy duty cleaner. Thanks so much guys.

 

1) Never let the dealer wash your car. Ever. Always decline the free car wash

2) If your wheels aren't painted or coated in anything, get some Mothers Mag & Aluminum polish and go to work. Works very well! You can find it at most auto parts stores

Looks like this

 

Work wheels are clear coated so Mothers polish wont work.

AND~ as mentioned above and everywhere else at CL, DO NOT let the dealer wash your car, EVER~

As for cleaning products on Work wheels, put some meguiers gold class or deep crystal car soap in a spray bottle, 1/4th soap to 3/4th water, then spray and wipe with only a mf towel. NEVER EVER use any type of 'rim cleaner' or anything else. Soap n water ONLY. The guy who sold you the wheels should have told you this at purchase.

 

Didn't know that. But now i do

 

If they are clear coated, you might be able to use a paint safe polish on them (assuming the stains were not removed with another washing). I found cleaning my coated rims usually removed the staining. Clean them first then post back your results
