Beetle Orbit wheel, What to use for cleaning
« on: 28 October 2013, 14:48 »
As the title says, the wife's Beetle is a year old and the wheels are looking scruffy.

As they are painted white with the chrome insert, I want to avoid the old 'wonder wheels' treatment due to concern of the paint coming off.

Any recommended alloy cleaners for these wheel types? (Including my GTD's Nogaro's)

Thanks in advance

Bilberry is good or a simple diluted shampoo solution with a soft brush/sponge.

Bilberry or Autosmart will be fine, but would probably dilute it.

They go through Truck Wash at the dealers so you should be fine!
