    I'm not sure where I got it from now, but I use WheelWax on mine, I love it, great product, you don't use much and it's lasted me for ages. I've never ever used a "wheel cleaner" on any of my wheels, just a mild non-wax stripping car wash like Megs Soft Wash between WheelWax applications and they come up spotless.
    (Oh, and I like my wheels c-l-e-a-n)

    I really wouldn't be using autosol as it is very grainy compared to other products out there on the market! It does leave fine scratches on metal once it is already polished.

    It's grainy cos it polishes. It's like, the best oldschool treatment.

    There's probably some cool new products but autosol is ridiculously cheap and easy..it wins.

    Wheel brush on wheels is most effective change I have made to my cleaning regime in ages. The reach is so much better, and doing them frequently prevents build up so carwash is OK tyo get off the dust.

    There are two Autosol metal polishes: liquid and paste.

    You are correct in saying the paste is quite grainy. It is designed for heavily tarnished or dirty metal surfaces and the 'grit' in the polish gives it a bit more balls.

    The liquid polish is a lot less abrasive but has great cleaning ability and will induce a great shine on lightly tarnished metal. We would always advise using the liquid as a first step and only use the paste if the liquid doesn’t cut it.

    Autosol is brilliant as it leaves a protective coating on the surface and stops the metal tarnishing as quickly.

    Cheers Greg
