Default Aluminum Polishing and Cleaning Question

I just picked up a pair of Ansen Slot Wheels. They are going to need some cleaning. I was wondering the best way to bring them back to a like new condition? I have a couple questions:

-What brand makes a quality aluminum polish?

-Are there other cleaners I should use as well?

-Should I use a mild abrasive scotch bright on certain areas? Steel Wool?

-What is the best way to get the wheels clean? Jack the back of the car in the air, take off a wheel and tire, and clean the wheels while it is spinning?

Many thanks as always!
-Dan

Try Flitz polish. I have always had good luck with that. The mothers also is very good.
