whats the best product and or ways to clean trim and aluminum parts

I just recently tried Master Formula for the first time, and love it. This works great an raw aluminum like wheels and brackets. They also sell a sealer that I am getting ready to try on a new set of wheels.

Regardless of what you use, put a sealer on when your done. If not it will start to dull again right away...

try some TR3 from cheif auto parts. it not only cleans, but leave a resin coating on. the longer you rub the shinier it gets.

I use a product called Autosol. It looks like a toothpaste tube and the box it comes in is the same size. It'll be in either a black box with silver printing, or in a gold and black box with white writing. Works great on aluminum, chrome, brass, copper, whatever. Any metal.
