Default How to polish factory wheels???

Does anyone have a good method to polish the factory six-spoke aluminum wheels? I noticed they are kind of porous. Didn't know if one product would work better than another? Thanks for the help!

They're clear coated. They shouldn't be porous. Maybe your clear coat is damaged?

10-4. Anything in particular that you use?

I just use a cleaner wax. Mine have seen better days though. No damage, just the clear coat chipping up on the edges. Probably started after a tire change so they're starting to corrode under the clear. Waxing will help keep the brake dust from sticking so badly.
