    Missus cleaned the car. ....

    You don't know how lucky you are! My Mrs uses my car and it comes back with half a hay bale and horse feed in the boot, muddy dog prints on the back seats, footwells full of mud manure, and half a bush dragged down the side of the car. And that's just on trip out

    Bilberry will remove general grime and brake dust hat hasn't baked itself onto the wheel. If it is baked on then most general wheel cleaners will struggle. What you'll need is an iron and fallout remover like Ironx. First try a strong shampoo mix or all purpose cleaner and see how you get on...

    Speak to the detailer and they should be able to provide you with some helpful advice on maintaining and protecting their hard work. First of look at your wash technique, grit guards and or 2 bucket method, wheels washed separately. A soft wash mitt that holds dirt away from the paint, a wax...

    Very cheap, very good Wheel cleaner!

    I'm not sure I'd waste my time on wheels now on anything less than a quartz / glass coating on wheels http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?738340-**-30ml-Group-Buy-CarPro-DLUX-%A320-Delivered!!!**

    Put my name down for the GB for Strata, doesn't seem many takers so may not go ahead. RyG glad to hear it was still going well. Used over a wax base it didn't perform well for very long, beading dropped quite quickly but was still present

    Need New Pads+Polish. What Get?

    I don't know much about the flex, is it still the same random orbit as a normal DA? I'd be tempted with green and white, as I had some good finishes with white. How hard is your paint as my friends black E92 330d doesn't seem that hard

    gally what's your thoughts on strata? It's now £45 delivered, worth it or not. Seeing RyG CQ finest was a little dissapointing but topped with sonax BSD might be a good combo. How did that last Ry? CQ can be had for <£30 for the pre revised formula, then there's he likes of carbon collective...

    Spray on one panel at a time, spray as little as possible as the standard sprayer sprays out too much product in a full spray. Spread round the panel and buff off immediately.

    Over a wax base, the superior beading doesn't last as long as C2. Although initially BSD will outperform most products Use it as a top up product after a general wash. I don't really rate it much as a stand alone product, so cleansing first will remove what existing protection you have...

    I have all the gear to prep them, so if you decide on the coating I'll give you a hand and show you how to do it. All I'd recommend is not getting them wet or using them the day of application if you can help it. Overnight damp shoulnt be a problem provided they get a decent drying period...

    Have you got the products to do it with or know what you want to use. I'd strongly recommend a glass coating like GTechniq C5, carpro dlux, Gyeon rim etc You're not too far from me so happy to do the prep and apply if you got the sealant

    Wheel sealant usage?

    3drops to coat an entire wheel seems a bit low. I apply it inside under light so you can see the greasy look it leaves behind. Not used the carbon collective versions so maybe these do spread that far I'm well into my 2nd year of a single coating of GTechniq C5

    Wheel sealant usage?

    I typically use 7-10ml of a nano sealant to apply a single coat to 16/17" wheels inside and out. The fact you managed 2 coats is impressive. but that in theory means hopefully you should have covered any gaps in the first coat. Unless you're planning on using it all up again anytime soon, it...

    The ultimate wheel cleaner?

    Without knowing what it is or what's causing it it's hard to say. It may the wheel wax itself leaving something behind when curring on the satin finish.

    The ultimate wheel cleaner?

    ValetPro bilberry or AutoFinesse Imperial are both decent wheel cleaners. They would certainly degrade any typical wheel sealant but may not remove it 100%. Then you have iron and fallout removers that are handy used on wheels as they remove the imbedded brake dust etc like Carpro IronX. I...
