Post Protecting rims
There was a post about this a while back, and I am showing some results. After washing my rims with Meguiars Gold Class car wash, I let them air dry. After letting them air dry, I used Meguiars polish and wax and applied to the lips. Here are the results: (lips aren't shiny as some would expect b/c they ARE NOT chrome, but polished)

Nicely done... I stil LOVE the first-gen SCs (especially with fat rubber!)
