Title: Wheel Polish
Post by: Jerry Pattison on December 16, 2018, 02:28:04 AM

Hi all!!!   I am away from my coach right now, and am trying to remember the polishing kit for my wheels.  It is the best, and I want to order it tonight, but cannot remember the name!!   Can any of my old Beaver friends who have used it  (harts??  hartz?? )  It comes with all the buffing tools needed for the holes, between lugs, etc.  Help me tonight????

No, I finally found it.  It is Busch!  It is the best polish I have been able to find for Al wheels!  Thanks, though, for your response!

This is for un-coated Al, so if you have wheels coated with Accu-Shield or a similar coating, this polish may damage or remove the coating.

Yes, to new members or new-to-diesel-coach owners especially, be careful what you use on your wheels.  As Steve notes, many are specially coated and can be ruined by using the wrong product on them.  Accuride wheels are stamped as to having Accushield, with a warning, and should be detergent or Dawn and water cleaned only.
