Wheel polishing
I have been using a paste polish on my wheels working really well only some tough stains it say to use a light abrasive pad on tough spots.
I used a green pad on a small section but I think it scratched it a bit much. What would you guys recommend? Steel wool will it scratch it at all? Thanks.

Use 000 or 0000 steel wool. The 4-0 is safe to use on glass and chrome too. Any scotch brite pad is going to be too abrasive. You will need to sand the scratches out .....

For aluminium or stainless steel I use a polishing disc and jewerles rouge. The rouge comes in three or four different calors. Each calor has a more or less abrasion. For aluminum I acidize it first then buff it out like new. It also works well on chrome.
