that residue that builds up after a month is called dirt.

if you wash it with soap and water once a week you should be fine. if you're lazy buy some spray-on wheel cleaner and then hose it off.

basically... mothers is a mag polish... so if those blade wheels have a clear coat on them... it'll take it off... because my lip had a clear coat on them too... a rim palce told me just to use wax to make em nice and shiny... used meguirs ... and it helps keep dirt off as well... but if u wanna go real shiny... just go polish them... but then your clear coat will be gone, then uve gotta use mothers to polish them up.

why do you want them polished they are going to look chrome. personally i like them when they look like alloy. thats just me though.
