Hello guys, just brought some freshly chrome plated lips for my three piece wheels. I previously had polished aluminum lips which needed to be polished about once a month to look good, but would dull out really fast.
How hard is it to maintain chrome lips/wheels? Do they require as much maintenance as polished aluminum? I have ultima paintguard plus, cg jetseal, and cg wheel wax. Can I use any of these together to preserve the shiny finish?
Thanks in advance.
 
I use Finish Kare 1000 and every once in a while after washing with car soap I use a QD as maintenance..my 2 cents as an enthusiast.
 
I'm just a big fan of collinite products.That stuff is really great and affordable and in my eyes nothing can beat it for the money.
 
I'm with GSKR. My wheels are silver paint, not chrome. But my brake dust is notorious for eating into the wheels in short order. I put new wheels on the car this spring and coated them with 3 layers of 845 first. They look brand new still after 3 months and the dust wipes right off.
