well...... I tried both.. and neither one worked, I don't know if it is my wheels or what, but I didn't see any difference to using soap and water.

@flaco198111 Maybe your wheels were pretty clean to begin with!

[flaco198111]

So which one do you recommend using? or are you suppose to used them together ?

[wbwvids]

@flaco198111 It depends, some people have better access to S100 than Noxon and vice-versa. There's no single "perfect" solution, I'd suggest buying the product that's available in your area and trying it. By the way, I didn't make it clear in the video, but it's always important to wash the rim first with auto wash soap and water first to remove as much dirt and grime as you can before polishing. I didn't do that on the motorcycle wheel, a mistake.

what would you recomend to do on a scratched chrome wheel? would it be a good idea to clean the rim first with NOXON 7 and then wash it with the S100 Polishing Soap?? can you use both products at the same time?? won't the chrome be affected???

@JUNIORGUS1 Well, that's exactly what this video is all about! It depends on how dirty it is and the availability of the cleaning/polishing products in your area. The S100 soap works well for lighter duty but you need water. Noxon works well and you don't need water. But before using anything, clean the wheels first with soap and water and a rag or something to get them as clean as possible before you start. You may be surprised at what basic soap, water, a light brush or rag will do.

@BlaqChizz2 Thanks - back when I did this video, there was no HD capability on YouTube. Maybe I should redo it in HD, I had no idea it would be this popular!

[wbwvids]

@RoyalDollMonroeTM Yes, I'm pretty sure it works well on brass instruments. As always, try it in a small inconspicuous spot first.
