Never really got my head around this sort of stuff. I never have problems cleaning alloys....I find it very easy just using the water I`ve just used on the car Maybe it depends how often they`re cleaned!

I used this and as scoobysteve says never understood what the point was. However I thought I would try some Autofinesse spirit wax on it and it is supperb. Not only does it enhance the shine but it makes washing effortless. I have now ditched my alloys brush and use a cloth as the dirt just slides off. Brake dust and tar just dont have a chance to stick now.

With the AG stuff I noticed a difference for around a week. With the wax its been on 2 months and still going strong.
