How to Polish Billet Wheels
A billet wheel is a type of metal car or motorcycle wheel usually made of aluminium and known for its flashiness. These wheels can be slightly more expensive than other makes, but fans of the type are willing to pay. When properly maintained, these wheels have a dazzling shine that is hard to find in from any other type of wheel. Polish billet wheels with a product made specifically for the wheels, to keep them in pristine condition.

Rub the whole area with a clean, dry cloth once you have polished the whole wheel (and your cloth is suitably grimy.) Remove any extra polish and buff the wheel.
