Hey guys,
I had no choice but to replace my wheels. They were badly corroded.
My new wheels are alloy. Mostly painted black with a small amount of silver.
I was wondering how best to look after these wheels. Can I just use metal polish( such as autosol) on the wheels including the
painted parts to protect them?
Thanks
Neil
And I also forgot to ask about wether acid based cleaner can be used on the wheels(for future reference)
No, do not use metal polish for painted/clear coated parts. Metal polish is made for the bare, raw metal.
What wheels are they? There are dedicated wheel cleaners out there that you could use when washing your car. Otherwise just regular car soap on them will work fine, as well as the wax you'd use on the painted body.
Thanks for the advice.Appreciated.
I dont know exactly what the wheels are! I live in Korea and cant speak Korean. I assumed they were painted alloy. Here ia a photo.If it's not good enough for you to ascertain what they are , I can post another one later today. Sorry its a shitty picture!20171221_190400.jpg

Here is a better photo.
Should I use non acidic cleaner with paintrd wheels and stay away from acidic cleaner?
Thanks
Try Sonax wheel cleaner. It is acid-free and safe for alloy wheels.
