Diamond Cut Alloy Care
« on: 28 September 2014, 08:31 »
Hey guys, looking for some advice re caring for the 18" Austin alloys on my mk7 gti. They're my first set of diamond cut alloys and so far I'm not that impressed. They keep picking up light scratched on the diamond cut surface (they're only 4 months old). This despite me using a separate wash mit, clean water/AG BSC (2 bucket method), a touch of bilberry wheel cleaner if required then waxed with Mer wheel wax.
They just seem increadibly to scratch, and add onto this the known issues with DC alloys I'm tempted just to get them painted when they need a refurb.
Anyone else have this issue/suggestions?
Thanks,
Rich.
