Hey all

Thanks

Get some sort of protection on them, maybe some Poorboys wheel sealant, then just keep on top of the washing. Give em a quick go with a mitt and some normal car shampoo every week and they'll be looking tip top most of the time.
Protection in the first place is the hard but most important part.

Thanks for the advice...will get on it when my car arrives early march......

I would advise Collinite 476 - great on the paint, great on the wheels - really can't beat the durability and you can get a nice glaze under it on the car

Cheers Scott, been reading up on both and they both seem very good...

Agree thats all I did.

Put 3 coats if poorboys on the day I got the car new and my wheels are really easy to clean. I never use anything other than car shampoo and a mit

When it comes to the poorboys sealant and applying the coats......is a case of applying one coat at a time and leaving it for a bit before applying another......

Never applied protection to the wheels before, just simply washed em!

i just applied a coating and buffed it off and repeated. the thinner the application the better as it can take a bit of elbow grease to get off if you apply too thick.

i used a megs applicator pad and a megs towel to buff it off. you can feel the protective layer when you touch the wheel. all the dirt just slides off now its really good stuff.

f**k ME those wheels look sooo sweeet!!

If your getting a new car, do it properly. Take the wheels of the car, give em a good clean, remove all the dirt/tar/crap you can then layer the entire wheels in 3 layers of PB wheel sealant. When it comes to washing all it will take it a little mitt, a long reach wheel brush(to clean the back of the alloys) and some normal wheel shampoo.

Let us know how you get on with it

Cheers mkviken really appreciate the advice as I don't want to go wrong with these wheels lol....yours are looking great...

As soon as the poorboys arrives are start applying the coats to the wheels as there stored in my parents spare bedroom waiting for GTD to arrive....
