Does anyone else have complaints about the high polished aluminum wheels and how easily they scratch and swirl? I've tried most everything but nothing I've found diminshes how bad the rims look especially in direct sunlight. I know some people have removed the clearcoat. I'd appreciate any suggestions on products that may help. I've got lots of Z2 and Mother's Clear Coat Wheel protecant on to minimize future damage. Also, what is a reasonable cost to have the wheels re-clearcoated?

Many thanks,

Mel

Thanks c4ever. I did the search and found some good information. Most everyone recommends stripping the clearcoat. Here is a link for those that are interested.
