Autosol?

autosol 110%

some super fine wet and dry 1200 will also be good to clean the surface

as above but wet'n'dry goes alot finer than 1200 grit. I find autosol does a great job but it also may be worthwhile getting yourself some polishing mops.

Autosol if they are a bit dulled, then something like begoum (sp?) metal polish.

Edit: If you have a drill and a polishing mop use that, will bring them up mint very quickly!

I've got autosol and the meguiars metal polish which are both pretty good. Also I just bought a metal polishing kit off ebay and they reccommended belgom (not sure if thats what Kam meant or if they're 2 different products lol).

Out of the two I tried I like the meguiars (mainly because it was cheaper and it was a bigger tub lol) but there isn't too much difference between them.

Just type polishing mop into ebay and it should come up with a load of them.

belgom (not sure if thats what Kam meant or if they're 2 different products lol). << Yes thats the stuff I meant.

If you cant find what you want here you may be mentally retarded...

I have the 8pc polishing kit they claim it can do 4 wheels. And there is an added extra for that belgom stuff too.

If you go on ebay and search for item number 290098956407, thats the one I bought. Send the seller of the product a message telling him what you need the kit for and he'll let you know which ones the best for you, thats what I did :p
