    My '65 currently has Eagle Alloy 589s all around. I will be selling them soon but want to clean them first and rid them of road grime. What is the best way to clean these wheels, as I believe they are polished alluminum alloy.

    I use Mother's Aluminum Polish paste and a heap of elbow grease. Finish them off with some glass cleaner and a soft rag.

    Mothers is the best I've used. Also try the Mothers power ball. It looks like a lot less elbow grease.

    I tried the power Ball, I wasn't very pleased with the results. It may be due to the Mother's METAL Polish, ( liquid), that I used. I'll try it again with the paste aluminum polish.
