I have these deep dish wheels on my RS4, and I've been using DP Gel wheel cleaner, and now my wheels have this white haze on them and now I'm freaking out cuz I can't get the white haze off. Can someone help?

Is there nothing I can do?

if they do just use a clear coat safe polish to clean them up.

have you called the mfg of the wheels?

Deep dish doesn't help me.

I'll call them and ask. If they don't have a clearcoat, what are my options?

What do you think?

If there is no clearcoat on the lips, run to your local autoparts store and pick up Mothers Billet Aluminum polish (it's one of two variations they sell, and this one is non-abrasive). It should clear up the oxidation.

Raw aluminum is a PITA because it oxidized and needs to be re-polished regularly.
