Wheel sealant for Gloss black alloys
« on: 17 July 2013, 07:22 »
Hi guys, in the next few months (hopefully), ill be taking delivery of my new GTD. it will be the first car I've ever owned that doesn't have fully silver alloys with the Negaro alloys having gloss black painted inserts.

What does everyone recommend as a wheel sealant for these sort of alloys please ?

I don't get dedicated wheel sealers. You don't get much value out of them.

Get something you can use on your paint and wheels. Colinite / finishkare high temp waxes, Jetseal is another user friendly one.

Marketing hype. You might be able to use PB on your paint but who knows.

fk1000p for me, also if they are painted then they can be polished.

i've never had any issues with polish/glaze/sealing the wheels.

I've purchased new alloys and have also been looking for a sealant.

Ended up getting Gtechniq c5. seems there are great reviews online.
