Title: Poorboys Wheel Sealant
Post by: andrewparker on August 20, 2010, 07:56:34 pm

Hi guys, picked up a tub of Poorboys Wheel Sealant at Tatton Park.

I've also been looking at RimWax, so would you use the Poorboys over the RimWax, or is that pointless?

Poorboy's wheel sealant is like raspberry mousse or something. I could eat it with a spoon.

Anyway, a couple of coats of PBWS should be enough to leave a protected surface. Rimwax would IMO be a replacement for PBWS, not an addition.

Am I right in thinking though, that the PBWS provides the protection, and the RimWax provides the shine?

PBWS provides protection and rimwax does both protection and shine.

On my Monza II alloys, I use two coats of PBWS and and two coats of collinite 476s.
