Looking good. My procedure goes like this and keep in mind it's a garage queen. I pull the rims a couple of times a year and wipe out the dust as there's no need for water never mind soap and all that other good stuff. I then will put on a good 5 or so coats of polish followed by at least 5 coats of wax. In the mean time I wax the rims approximately EVERY 15-20 kilometres.

Some say that is not enough but 5 coats every 100 kilometres seems like a nice number.

Killer procedure man, mine sees rain/snow/salt/dirt/gravel - You name it.
I hope you're using a good sealant after all that work.
