Default Yellowing clear coat.......>>
Polish and wax is probably your only alternative...Something you used in cleaning probably did it. Not common here.

Default Your doggie did it? Or is it something in the Air in your area?
If cleaner doesn't do it, try a mild aluminum polish like Wenol or P-21s or Mothers

Default Woah! Bud, he is the high tech guru, I am the low tech exterior guru. After all,
who else could come up with a toilet brush to scrub the inner rim of the TT wheels?

Hummmmmmmm!

Default IT'S THEIR DOUBLE SUPER SECRET CATALOG for those
truly interested in worthless, bourgeois, designer-labeled capitalistic goods like execs at TYCO, WORLD COM AND ENRON.

It's the same catalog that had the $15,000 french umbrella stand purchased by Mr. Tyco

Not sure you want to be in that list -

Heck, I've been using a toilet brush for a year and a half. Works great to clean the rims
