Anyone recommend a wheel polish?!
« on: April 16, 2011, 08:01:10 pm »
Hi

Spent hours claying, polishing, waxing my car today.....but wheels not came out brilliant, looking quite dull! Can anyone recommend a wheel polish/wax? I have the 18" monzas.

Thanks

What I've done once the wheels are clean is seal I use chemical guys but poorboys is also good then wax again I use collinite 476.  This seems to give good results and future maintenance should be easier.

You can use what ever polish you're using on the car.

TBH hand polishes are probably going to be easier. A lot of people like using AG SRP.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Will try and use the maguires polish I used on the car today then try chemical guys if they don't come up!! This forum has opened my eyes to detailing since I bought the gti and it's costing a fortune!! Ha  :rolleye:
