I just washed my wheel and it seems that only one wheel still have the anodized look of purple hue whle other three wheels dont show any purple hue.

what can i do to bring them back?

 

What did you use to wash them? Any other chemicals besides soap?

 

no, just regular soap and water.
i did use meg's wax

 

Make sure it's compatible with your wheels. My friend used Mothers wheel polish on his anodized Volks and messed them up.

 

do you think its the reasoning of the Meg's Wax? i hope i can get the anodized finish back, i don't see any coats peeling

 

I'm not sure, but I don't see what else it could be if you only used soap besides that meg's wax.

 

that pic is gettin a little old...no pun intended

 

I would change it but it has become a my350Z.com tradition.

 

No change.

 

this is picture of front, still can see the purple hue around the reflective shadow


this is picture of rear, cannot see the purpleish hue.


its lot more visible with eye then camera

 

I have used Mother's aluminum polish before but that never killed the color of the coat.
just wondering why did it decolored all of sudden

 

You shouldn't use metal polish on Volks. The lip isn't just polished, it has a clear coat over it. Maybe a dog took a **** on your wheel or something?

 

i only did it every 3 months and didnt rub very hard, also i heard it was safe.
if the polish caused the decoloring, why did it happen on only 3 wheels and not all?

 

So you polished the polish out of the anodozied for polished?

 

vhwat

 

u just blew my mind

 

I would suggest you take them to a reputable wheel repairer to get a second opinion but it looks like the anodized finish has definitely been stripped.



That was classic.

 

That sucks major *****, if it really stripped. It was there two days ago, now its gone

 

Wait, that's different it if if was there a few days ago. Did you use wax on the three wheels that don't have the hue and not on the one that still shows it. The wax may have coated the finish?

Maybe retry washing one of the wheels with soap and water and see how that turns out.

 

I can barely see a purple hue.
