            After alloy decontamination with IronX, de-tar with AF Oblitarate, AF Imperial wheel cleaner using Daytona Speedmaster brush, dried, polished with Megs Ultimate then sealed with Planet Polish Wheel Seal and Shine.

            Wheel arches cleaned and scrubbed.
            Tyres cleaned and scrubbed with Surfex HD, dried then dressed twice with CarPro Perl:

              Very nice chap!! They look sweet .....still got the lil circle stickers on it so I guess yours is pretty new. I shall get some pics of my cleaning attempts next time I do it (if I ever get my car back)

              have you noticed swirl marks in your paintwork? I have noticed these on my paint since day one.....

                It used to have swirls but machine polished them out myself now. A good safe washing and drying technique with the correct products is needed to minimise swirlage.
