The plan is to clean and seal the wheels - then only clean them with regular shampoo.  Ive never touched my wheels since theyve been on (3 moths+) with either iron x or a wheel cleaner..

I've started using AutoSmart Smart Wheels. I think AS recommend a dilution ratio of 1:3 but I use it at 1:10 with good results. At that dilution, it's LSP safe too (at least IME).

very good product

then seal with poorboys http://www.poorboysworld.com/wheel-sealant.htm

xjay1337:
Poorboys wheel sealant is not very good at all.
The durability is very poor.
The only plus is that it smells nice.. which when using a product for a job isn't what I look for.

FK1000p or Collinite 476s are far, far better choices and £ for lb, cheaper.

Tortaruga:
IME Fk1000p is a really really excellent sealant.

476s is very durable but I don't think it's heat resistant and I stopped using it on wheels after it started to yellow. I thought the lacquer had discoloured but normal service resumed after they were stripped back and resealed.
