Removing Waterspots from ALuminum wheels

[88Silverado]

I have some hard water deposits on my ALcoa wheels I cant seem to remove.
I have tried 3-4 different Al cleaners/polishes, even the Alcoa Gel Acid cleaner but cant seem to get them out.

Any ideas??

I have a set of 15x12 alcoas in my garage(for sale) and they were dull and spotty. To actually get the spots fully out and get a chrome like finish it will take a big aggressive buffer. It's the only way to get them really shiny. The best polish on the market is "What a Shine" and it is available at most truck stops. It has a shiny label and comes in 2 forms, green polish for deep oxidation and pink for light oxidation. It is very expensive but worth it!
