Only I use AG metal polish.

Before on the right, after on the left.

other way round, before on left, after on right? or is it just my monitor? lol

Trouble with mine being a diesel, they get so black soo quickly! I can never seem to get the last bit of though.

You need a fine grade wire wool 00 or finer.

I use Mothers Mag & Ally polish which i personally think out performs all others on the market, but it is expensive (unless like me you buy it in the USA ). So Autoglym or Autosol are cheaper alternatives.

Once they're clean then seal them,a wheel wax or a sealant should do the job.I did mine with opti-seal and all they need now is shampoo + water.
