Hook n ladder 1 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I got these great brand new Alcoas. What kind of sealer would you guys suggest to keep them nice and shiny? They're not durabrites. I know what yer thinkin..."Cheap Ba$tard should have bought durabrites." Alcoa does not put durabrite finish on 17.5" rims. I gots 4 brand new 17.5s.

thomastractorsvc Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 The guy who polished my stuff used and said to use mothers mag and aluminum polish http://www.mothers.com/02_products/05100-05101.html#&slider1=20 Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own."

Timmyb Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I remember Alcoa had a sealer years ago. Seems to have disappeared off the market. Google told me about Gords metal polish. It's supposed to be a cleaner, Polish and sealer in one.

mackey58 Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Yea all that stuff Alcoa made was good I liked that spray gel acid they had and that spray sealer worked good then it all disappeared Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/44186-aluminum-rim-sealerto-keep-a-shine-not-for-a-bead/#findComment-328388 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hook n ladder 1 Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 I did use Shineseal AKA Zoop Seal. It really shined them up, even though they are brand new. They're not on my trailer yet so we'll see how they hold up.
