best polish for Eagle 212's

What would be the best thing to use to polish some Eagle Alloy 212's? I was thinking Mother's Billet Polish or Blue Magic (I think thats the name of it.) Just wanted to check before I bought anything.

I use Mother's on all of my chrome, it polishes better than anything else.

I use Wenol Blue on my Eagly Alloy 216s. That stuff works pretty damn good but then again I have never used anything else on them.

Re: best polish for Eagle 212's

Well I went by Advance Auto to look at the Mother's Billet Polish today and they were sold out, but they had that BLUE MAGIC stuff I asked about for only $4. I guess I'm just not sure about it, I mean I KNOW Mother's has a good rep and its a good name brand, but I've just never heard of this other stuff. It said it was good for chrome and aluminum wheels. And I know Eagle 212's are polished alluminum so I guess it will be ok to get. I still might just pay the $13 freakin dollars for Mothers.

Re: best polish for Eagle 212's

LOL! Try the blue junk then go back over your rims w/ the Mother's Billet Polish and let us know your results...Keep the receipt for the blue junk. Maybe they'll let you return it!

I use this stuff from brilex solutions on my INTRO billet rims and it works wonders...and they have 3 different levels.
