water and soap, (if its detergent) will get rid of the polish look on the lips. What you need to do is clean them with water and soap and then go buy some wheel polish (maguiars) makes one. That wheel polish will bling out your lip.

i use just wax, and put like 2 or 3 coats on. Then buff them out. works great and is easier to clean the second time, water just beads right off.

good luck bro

Try scratching at the lip with your fingernail and lots of water. See if there is a film of gunk stuck to it.

Agree with SangWL. I use Maguiars wheel polish then add a few coats of wax on there. In the future the rims are a lot easier to clean and a bit less dirty.
