Any thoughts, or proven methods?

I've used soap and water (Adams Car Shampoo, Carpro Reset) and a low-pile walmart cheapo MF towel since day 1. Hydrophobic coatings and spray sealants really help a lot here. A quick shot of Magic Elixir* Quick Detailer has avoided any build up.

Yours are to the point where a mother's powerball/cone and some aluminum polish is needed, but will brighten them up quick.


* Carpro Ech20 : Carpro Reload : Distilled water in a ratio of 1:4:20.
