1956 Thunderbird wire wheels protectant

What is used to protect chrome finish on wire wheels? Spay on wax? I use Produxa on car, good for wheels too?

I bought some “Wheel Wax”
For an other car with chrome wheels. Seems to work well but can’t think that using any polymer or good sealant wouldn’t work just as good!

Looks like the same yellow stuff!

The various waxes shown seem like they would be difficult to access inward spokes & inside of spokes without removing the wheels?

Yup spoked wheels are a PITA to clean and wax. My friend was using a laced wheel cleaning kit that used some kind of acid cleaning agent and neutralizer but after a few years it started to eat the chrome!
Beware!!!
