Polished wheel care

Hi Alex,

what do you recomend for the care of unlacqured polished wheels?

I've got to the point where if I have to get them re-polsihed every couple of years then so be it but in the mean time what is the best product to use to keep them shiney and un corroded?

many thanks

Simon

My previous wheels had an unlaquered polished lip... Best way I found was a very light metal polish, some of which like Meg's NXT metal polish provide a bit of protection to, followed by lots of sealant, or a dedicated Wheel Sealant from the likes of Poorboys...... You can use a wax but sealant is not as prone to degrading under heat and the elemets like a wax is.

Cheers.

lol.....

NXT Metal Polish is £6.75, and Poorboys Wheel Sealant is £11.95.

You can go direct through the site, or I can give you Paypal details if you'd prefer?

Cheers .

paypal would be easiest I think - saves me waiting on the funds to come back into my bank anyway!
