I’ve used Rim wax, but not overly impressed.

I'm too busy trying to keep two old bangers on the road

It looks it is not an easy job to make a choice!

I use autofinesse mint rims after I used up all my poorboys stuff. Can't remember the name of the PB stuff apart from it was pink in colour. The AF mint rims is decent and smells minty fresh too!

Did the ML wheels but have no beading pics, but have beading pics from doing the CLS wheels recently.

Just had a thought, I’ve just coated “Her Indoors” 172 alloys with that CGs ceramic stuff, so we’ll see how that goes.

When you did the Hydro Slick , did you do the glass and windscreen , I'd be interested to hear if the windscreen repelled water or caused blade judder ?

I use 2;

Autogym Wheel Sealant and Bilt Hamber double speed wax. Generally sticking with the former on a regular application basis.

(my refurbished alloys still look like new after 85,000 miles, doing 1,000 miles a week, snow or shine and running Ferodo DS2500 brake pads......)

+1 for Chemical Guys Wheel Guard - use it at start of autumn, and again in spring, and wheel clean easily.

Not sure if it's still available, but used Car Plan Wheel Protector when I put alloys on my old Defender - fantastic stuff! Spray on clean, dry rim, leave 5-10 mins, then wipe off any excess. Could almost get away with just hosing the much off.

I did all glass Wighty, except screen, I didn’t think it was a good idea to use it on the screen ??

Cheers buddy , I can't comment on the screen , I've not read the bottle

I never read instructions, one of my many faults

Just found some of this In the garage, it’s donkeys years old, I can’t even remember if it was any good.
I got a nice small hold-all of different Super Guard products when I brought a car .

Just checked instructions on bottle Wighty, and it doesn’t mention anything about glass or wheels etc.
It just says painted surfaces, but ive done chrome /glass /wheels and anything else I could get it on

Wish I hadn't seen this thread.
I've never waxed my alloys, but having read this I suppose that I'd better start. One car has just had a wheel refurbish, so it's a good time.
