Default mother powerball

is there another alternative other than elbow grease when polishing your rims?
Looked at the powerball and it was $35 CAD. Seemed a little $$$ for something so simple.

Please tell me you work in Vancouver. IF you do would you be able to hook me up?
One of the shops I checked was selling it for $35CAD and I don't know if that is just the retail price.

Whereabouts is that in relation to Coleman Alberta? My brother in law lives there. WHat's the name of your store? I'll have to ask if they can visit you if it's not too far to pick up the powerball for me.

The Powerball (Mother's) is going for about $25USD, and when purchsed with the bottle of cleaner, it (amount for cleaner) can be refunded via mail in rebate.

I just checked a Canadian tire store here, (car parts and other stuff) and they sell it for $29.99 Cad.
As for the cleaner, I will keep using my mothers and eagle one mag and aluminum wheel polish.
What kind of polish are they recommending?
