Question about aluminum polish sealer for wheels?

I think that I remember seeing a product on trucks, or Hot rod TV, called Zoops sealer, or Zoots sealer ( not sure how to spell it).

Does someone know where you can buy this stuff. I want to polish the wheels on my new pickup, and then use this stuff to keep the shine on, once a year.

It may not be cheap. But the old saying is "You get what you pay for."

Would be nice to know how well it works with alot of washings.........

I emailed Zoops and asked them for a sample because I wanted to see if it worked like they said. The guy from Zoops is a real horses @SS. After emailing several times back and forth, I wouldn't buy their crap if it was the best thing on earth. There is a clear sealer from the company that sells POR15. I talked to a guy that had used both and he said the Zoop stuff was not near as good as advertised. He like this stuff much better.

With some good tunes, I actually enjoy polishing mine now with what I use. Think the zoops is about 100 bucks............I thought about it but passed on the idea.

If they are dull it takes me about a half hour per wheel. I use mothers polish and a bunch of small terry cloth rags.

California Customs............. 5 minutes per wheel and one of the best shines you can get. (Thats after you get them looking good). If you are doing a really tarnished set of wheels I would recomend the oxidizer first then purple polish. Easiest I have found.

Mountain Man,

Have your rims polished up and take them to a powder coater and ask them to clear your rims you will never have to polish again ! Period, just wipe and go ! :p That is what I will be doing when I get my new rims ! It is an investment !
