Title: Wheel cleaner for polished Estorils?
Post by: DubStalker on 11 May 2009, 21:02

hey guys,

Can someone recommend a good wheel cleaner for polished Estoril wheels like these...

The wheel cleaner I have from my old car says not to be used on polished alloys

Thanks in advance

belgom alu... search for it on ebay, its like brasso but with a wax, awesome stuff for polished alloy.

Yeah, sorry, guess it's probably more of a detailing question, but thanks Joe, I'll have a look for that

belgom alu is great stuff... but it is a pain in the ass having to keep using that weekly

I use belgom alu followed by a few coats of poorboys wheel sealant... this is on a monthly basis

although belgom alu contains a wax it isn't nearly as good as the PB wheel sealant

when I come to weekly clean I simply use bilberry wheel cleaner and then pressure wash off... nothing else is needed




mods: might be better moved to detailing
