Cleaning Alloys....

(1/4) > >>

As most of you already know, I'm not especially into detailing - I spend a couple of hours handwashing my GTI but only when she gets dirty. So that can be once every 4-6 weeks and only if the weather allows outdoor cleaning. I use Meguiar's NXT Generation car wash and a lambswool mitt and big waffle(?)/microfibre cloth thingy.



However, I am more inclined to wash the alloys more often. I am changing the finish on my diamond-cut alloys to powdercoated, in order to keep out the dreaded 'white worm'. It's a common issue and I don't understand why VAG continue with it as it results in a lot of warranty claims.



So, when my alloys are powdercoated, what do you recommend please for cleaning and protecting them?

Thanks +++

....Well, right now today, they probably are totally stripped but they should be powdercoated and ready for Saturday's mega-meet.

Meanwhile, my Monza 17's are back on : -
