Are my Xterra wheels clear coated?

2003 XE with alloy wheels. I want to polish them and I purchased Mother's mag and alloy polish but it says that its harmfull for clear coated alloy wheels...I have not used it yet.

** I am trying to get a scratch out.

does anyone know??

thanks

Your wheels are painted, so mag/alloy polish is not going to work on them.

Anything that will buff some scratches out of the paint...Glad I asked here first instead of using the alloy polish?

Thanks!

Any good wax product for removing scratches in the body paint should work on the wheels as well.

Be careful though man!!!! I have seen wheels ruined many times by people either using the wrong product on them, or people polishing/cleaning when they are hot. Let them cool down or you run the risk of ruining them. I would try it on your spare, or at least a inconspicuous spot first!

test on your spare? A painted wheel does not come with the spare tire.

FYI ...
2002 4X4 SE Supercharged comes with a fullsize spare (same wheel as the others). I didn't realize that you guys only have 4X2's and no supercharger...sorry for that...

Np. Wish I did now..

anyway called the dealership and it might be covered under warrenty since my truck is only 3 weeks old.
