its not too hard to maintain....just put some metal sealant on it...and do not let any water dry on them. and your good to roll for a long time. i only use glass cleaner when im wiping the dust off...and be sure to use a clean microfiber towel everytime. and pretty much will never have to polish them

That's what I do too but what are you using as a sealant? I tried top coat but don't have anymore and it worked for a little bit

I use Wolfgang metal sealant. But you can use any type of wax. Just reapply the wax everytime you wash your car or clean them because the wax or sealant doesnt last all that long due to the high heat but it helps maintain it a lot longer periods. Think of it as more you wax...the less you'll have to polish periodically. I never polish mine bcuz it maintains so well.
