Does anyone have suggestions for a wheel cleaner that would be safe for my painted wheels with aluminum lip?

Im useing wetpaintglaze for my wheels now also, but if you need a product that really does and outstanding job on all metals then go to your store of choice and buy a little jug of Blue Corals Metal Polish..clear coat safe and it really makes them shine...

Save the money! Just use the WP, it won't scratch the wheels but have plenty of terry towels ready.

I just use car wash...works well and then if I am polishing/waxing I use the Wet Paint.

I have always wanted to go to that Top Of The Line detailing store, it used to be along my way to a place I did some contract work at, but I haven't gone up there for a year. Would have been quite interesting to go to a store with a whole selection of uncommon detailing products....
