Hello Folks Would it be safe or very stupid to use wonder wheels cleaner on M3 wheels? Im one of these freaks that hates dirty alloys and tend to use alot of this stuff. If its a bad idea, is there anything else out there that cleans as well but wont come time damage the wheel? Mark |

Soon as you get car take alloys off and clean with soap and water Then coat them with around 3-4 coats of http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/pb142wheels.html - Wheel sealant Thanks to Polishedbliss for the link A little Guide http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/guides_wheels.html - Here
Then every time to wash car clean alloys with soap and water and towel dry If needed apply more wax You could even give them a top up now and again of your favorite car Polish if you are polishing your car ------------- Previous: E36 318is coupe, E36 323i coupe, E30 316 saloon, E30 318 saloon, E46 330ci Sport Conv E92 325d M Sport(3.0),With Loads of gadgets Current: 116i Sport F20 |

Yeah don't put the acid near them Mark, just wash them regularly and keep them looking pristine with wax and sealant. -------------  F22 Estoril Blue M235i |
