Hello all....

Does anyone happen to know and could advise... What's the best cleaner for White Alloy's?? I find that i'm having to wash my wheels at least once a week... i love my car to bits, and cleaning isnt that much of an issue to be honest, but i'd just like for once to have clean shiny wheels for longer than 5 days...
Thanks
Shaun

You can't stop the wheels from getting dirty unless you don't drive the car as much.

What you can do is protect them with a wheel product such as Chemical Guys Wheel Guard or Poorboys Wheel Sealant (others are available) applying a product like this will give the wheels a nice finish and make them much easier to clean.

If you want a good wheel cleaner try Valet Pro Bilberry Wheel Cleaner or Autoglym Custom Wheel Cleaner, both are acid free and very good.

I hope that helps you

Just whack some wax or polish on them regularly and they will be dead easy to keep clean
