clay bar wont do anything you need metal polish. No there is no protective coating that you can apply some companies sell it but i don't dare use coatings on my wheels. I am very picky when it comes to them. Having polished wheels is a big task keeping the clean and polished. when they get bad like this expect a lot of hard work.

I use wheel wax on my wheels all the time and it works great, especially in the winter it helps keep them clean a little longer. Heres a link to it http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ARE-9000903/?rtype=10

@fink132 - Excellent point, I don't think any1 on here was thinking that. This guy needs to give his woman more kitchen work to keep her away from ruining the truck.
