Arrow Night Train or Standard polished rear wheel care.......What product?

What cleaning/polishing product(s) are you folks using to keep that rear wheel looking clean and bright?

Also, what type/brand of applicator or fabric are you using to not scratch the wheel surface?

Thanks.

I don't think you could go wrong with many of the products out there, really comes down to the effort you put in. Less typing, more polishing

Or you could just paint it all and never polish again, my vote lol

I had mine exchanged with a chrome one off eBay. Couldn't be happier and was probably the best $300 I spent on my bike.

I've used Eagle1 Nano polish, and Mothers metal polish. Both with similar results. Unless its been years since a cleaning, a regular microfiber will do the trick.

My rear wheel on my Custom is Polished, and hands down the best I have used so far is Mothers Mag Aluminum Polish.

When I was home I bought the Mothers polish ball and Mothers polishing compound and went after my rear wheel and it came out great

Just go to whatever auto store U have and tell them you want their BEST product for the job your doing,, I am they will recommend something the have inhouse.. or you could visit your dealership and buy the Harley product they make for your bike.

I used black powder coating. Took care of having to spend money on polishing supplies.
