How are you polishing them?

Those can get nasty, and will need a little more elbow grease. :)

Im assuming your Budnik wheels are polished alluminum. I use Wizards metal polish on mine. Its a cotton fiber impregnated with there polish and Ive found it to be the least abbrasive of many alluminum polishes Ive sampled. Should remove all the oxidation and water spots, buff to a high polish with turkish cotton cloths.

elbow grease is the answer. i assumed the chip foose powerball special would work. tossed it and used my hands. thanks for the replies

White vinigar and water 50/50 will take off hard water spots.
