Question

I want to keep the alloys clean and shiny and I seem to remember someone saying they put polish on theirs so when they cleaned them the brake dust just came straight off.

Anybody got any hints?

Thanks in advance!

Get anthracite wheels!

I agree that a good coat of polish is good, before they get cacked. Makes them so much easier to keep clean.

That's the key, clean them really well inside and out (if not new), and slap some good polish on, Autoglym super resin + finishing polish works for me.

Take a look in the "next group buy" thread running in the SCOTLAND section of this forum. This stuff maybe of use to you.
