Polishing wheels on Ford Chassis
Any recommendations on polishing aluminum wheels on Ford 53 chassis. Do not know mfg. Freightliner uses Alcoa but do not know what Ford uses.

Liborko,
"FIRE UP: Your wheels are proprietary Freightliner wheels very likely made by Alcoa(with Freightliner logo holes) for Freightliner not available for anyone else."
Not that it's any big deal but, my wheels don't say "Alcoa" anywhere on them. They do say "Accuride" on them though. I have tried to find someplace that says Accuride wheels are either owned or manufactured by Alcoa but, as of yet, I can't find it. I've seen wheels with an Alcoa label or sticker on them but, as stated, ours have stamped in them, "Accuride". The part number is 28548 which, when looking them up in the Accuride catalog, it has that part number only sold by Freightliner. Just some info here.
