Not familiar w autosol-where do I get it??

Autosol is at most auto parts stores or online. It's the best IMO.   I used it to polish my slot mags with a 3,000 rpm buffer and foam pad.  Us soap and water if you don't watch to etch the finish with acid.  If you are going to do a polish job, use alumabrite available at napa (acidic).  Dont polish or use acid on rims if they are clear coated.

I'm an Autosol user too.  There are also a lot of people who like that Mothers powerball stuff but I haven't tried it myself.

Autosol "cuts" better than mothers so IMO it's better for rough wheels.  Autosol and a 3k rpm buffer runs circles around the powerball. IMO
