They more you do them, the easier they are. I've gotten pretty good at cleaning them, now that I've done them a bunch of times.

My supra has CCWs classics and I've always cleaned them myself. Let's just say you will become very very intimate with your wheels, so much your wife/girlfriend will be jealous. Anybody with CCWs will know what I mean LMAO

Especially when it's a polished finish

What products do you use and do you have any techniques you recommend?

I don't use any products currently, other than soap and water. I use a good set of wheel brushes, however.

I've thought about using a Sonax product or similar, I just worry about messing up the clear-coat on the wheels and brake calipers as well as causing issues with the raw aluminum brake hats. I've heard this isn't an issue, though.
