Care for polished aluminum wheels
I have a set of Mickey Thompson polished wheels on my 05 Suburban 2500
The wheels are not clear coated
I'm looking for a good cleaner/polish/sealer.
I am not a fan of detailing so hopefully you have some good ideas that will last since I'm from MN with very harsh winters.

The best polish I have used, and I have tried a bunch, is Mothers BILLET... Mothers sells 2 different Aluminum polishes, make sure it says BILLET.
A very good sealer is Zoop Seal, lasts about a year... but It's gonna cost ya!

Wish I could tell ya there was something easy, and lasts forever, but I'd be lying if I did. Uncoated aluminum will tarnish even garaged, and I don't care who says differently. I've used just about everything there is, and it still boils down to an elbow grease labor of love (or hate).

x2 on the mothers polish and zoop seal! Also you can get the mothers polishing power ball that goes on the end of your drill.
