Cleaner/sealer for Solstice alloys?

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have the lovely Anthracite grey Solstice alloys and wonder what wheel cleaner and sealer people use on these, especially the cleaner? With the diamond cut finish I want to make sure I don't use anything that could damage this.
I tried Wonder Wheels Hot Wheels which is supposed to be acid free and safe to use on all wheels. Luckily I tested it on a tiny section first as it did seem to damage the surface. Any advice on anything that is definitely safe would be much appreciated before I dare to try anything else!

Cheers,

Mike

Iron X or Bilberry should be fine for you

Or this

Once cleaned I would suggest sealing them with Planet Polish Seal and Shine, which will give you 3 months protection or for longer durability and protection Gtechniq C5.

Planet polish seal and shine is the one to use, polished my wheels 3 mths ago still working, just need a wipe with a dry cloth when dirty.

Thanks guys, got a few options now!

With regards to the Wonder Wheels, it wasn't the usual stuff, it was the Hot Wheels version which claims to be safe for all wheels and non-acidic. It didn't even warn about trying on a small area first! Glad I did though!

:text-goodpost: :text-bravo: Couldn't agree more. Inexpensive, easy to apply and does a damn fine job :thumbup: :thumbup:
