wish I had taken a before photo,
these are for the snow tires going on the daily driver 17 year old, +200k miles Sonoma,, got the wheels at a local used tire vendor, had lots of caked on brake dust and major curb rash, existing clear coat was flaked, weather hazed..

Used a POR 15 product, Glisten PC,, for the amount of time I got in them, they look really good.

I followed these basic instructions:

used regular paint stripper from Lowes,was thick, put it on with an old paint brush. Mothers spray on aluminum wheel brite and Mothers aluminum paste cleaner.

Your wheels look great - job well done!
thanks too for the tips
