Though I'd be clever today and take off my alloys, clean em and smear with new funky silicon oxide protecteant.

It was gonig pretty well, but when i got to the 3rd (front wheel) I stupidly let go of it while answering my phone. Cue the wheel rolling slowly away from me and then landing face down scuffing all the spokes and the rim.


Stan.... You are a f................kin idiot!!!!!!

Just console yourself that it could have been worse, the car could have fallen off the jack. wink

Trip to Lepsons will sort it out for the price of a tank of fuel.

Not good.

Ive used Wheel Wax before ..it works ok, lasts a few washes...but best stuff has been coating the car/wheels by www.gtechniq.com ...3 years later, still no brake dust sticking to the wheels...just a wipe with soap n water when I clean the car

Geez, that's impressive, is the application straightforward?
I notice looking at GTechniq's wesbite that it comes in 15ml and 25ml bottles, is this enough for 4 wheels?

Product I am using is called pro wheel sealant by a company called nanolex. It's very similar to the g techniq stuff.

It's ironic that I've actually caused more damage trying to apply the stuff!!!!
