look into the Mothers power ball. and the polish you can buy for it. It will cut your cleaning time in half if not more.

I just got it this morning and it did work for the majority but it still leaves the semi fine stuff

Get the big ball and the little one. I actually like using the little one better.

For some reason that whole sentence seems to sound wrong

Can you wash it? I'd be afraid to hit the wheel with a rotating part from the drill.

im not sure bout the big one, but the small one is on a 8-10' rid which is coverd by a free spining plastic peice. You can use the plastic peice as a handle for better control.NOt100% sure if you can.. if so i need to was mine. lol

I use a wheel cleaner, I never have to scrub my wheels - the stuff works so good it's ridiculous. It even takes the grime out from inside the wheel without scrubbing.

I found cleaning the wheels and putting a coat of wax on them will make cleaning them without a detergent a LOT easier.

The little Power Ball comes with a 9in shaft. So it pretty hard to hit the rims with anything but the foam part

Sweet. Does it spray polish around? I'd hate to have the car nice and clean only to have some polish flung around...
