How would you guys remove these wash marks on a set of wheels. 3" pad will work everywhere but wont get completely between the spokes, only about half way. Should I just cut/trim a 3" flash pad to fit? Will also have to trim the backing plate. Also, If I were to coat them what would be best? CQ,CQUK? Will wheel wollies be safe enough to clean them in the future without adding any brush marks?




 
Mothers makes some of the pretty awesome stuff for wheels(power balls and cones). Unless Corey sells better kinda things...........?????

^^ This! I have both the Mothers large power ball and small power ball and use them often, they work great! I use them with my corded drill as I don't feel I get enough torque with my cordless. These were done with a power ball and a few old pads cut into pieces and used by hand...

I used Meguiar's Dynacone, from photos and reviews it looked better than Mothers power cone which I've never tried so i can't compare..
Transferred wheels from this:

To this (coated with Dlux after polishing):

If you're going to use it on a full set of wheels and more than 1 step, you better have more than one or clean it well between wheels/steps.. Otherwise it'll start shredding and will not be usable anymore just like mine did :)
