Waste of time or worth doing? So when your high street tyre fitter adds the weights, they’ll stand less chance of flinging off.

Probably worth doing so they don't use a wire wheel or scotch pad to quickly strip the dirt off.

Worth doing, since you'll take more care than the tyre fitters will.

Won't hurt, but my local garage has a few microfibers and brake cleaner. Does no harm.
