Magic!
On the painted bits I used some wheel cleaner, well that didn't work out too good. I bought some heavy duty brake dust cleaner, and that helped out a lot. I scrubbed all of the little cubbyholes with a tooth brush. LOL Then I hit it with a cleaner wax, and a carnauba deep shine wax. I think they turned out quite well.
On the aluminum I used Mothers aluminum polish, with the power wheel and got them looking nice.

Blower motor relay burned up last night while we were heading to the bar cab filled with smoke we thought truck was on fire but apparently there'* a recall on that in nbs Chevy/gmc so looks like I get to do some rewiring

If there is a recall, then why bother butchering it? Have it done by the dealer.

That cleaning did make a huge difference! Thise mags are nasty for small holes to get into, so good job.
I am currently cleaning up 4 new caddy mags and found this Simoniz Heavy duty Rim Cleaner and it eats brake dust like it does not exist. Leave a polished shine too! The rear of these mags were real black around hub. I used SOS pads to get it all clean inside they were that bad. I like to wax too after on rim.
