Happy new year to everyone
had my gti Mk2 for a month and as the bloke at work who sold it to me had not cleaned it in 2 years of ownership it was a shed inside and out, the BBS alloys were in a bad way with the rims looking pretty bad, i used the Cillit bang on the whole wheel and it has fetched them up well there is still a bit of pitting on the front rims but the backs came up very well, i think another go at the front and they will be up to about 95% it wont get rid of it all I'm sure but the wheels will last me for allot longer than i thought they would. Used it while the wife went to the sales and got it back in befor she missed it.

got ours from Wilkinsons in Chesterfield, wife said can get it at a lot more places now

I also used it to soak the dreaded alloy heater bypass valve, it fetched a load of crap out of it and the valve was letting water through after i had done it, got heat in the car after aswell till the thermostat openend but thats another prob lol
