Got a can of this as part of Halfords BOGOF deal yesterday with some other bits. Anyone used this before? Any good? Never used it before but thought ild give it a try.

Hi Mate..
Its ok but does not have much durability. I would recommend something like Poorboy's Wheel Sealant.
Long lasting protection for wheels against the environment and brake dust...makes clean-ups a breeze, even on the worst wheels. Use it on any type of wheel.
Poorboys Wheel Sealant applies a clear barrier, sealing your wheels against dirt, brake dust, tar and bugs. Dirt and debris sit on top of this barrier and can be wiped easily away. Even brake dust wipes off the shiny wheel surface. Water will also bead off too preventing unsightly water marks.
Hope this helps....

I use FK1000p on my Alloys and have been very impressed with it. I am planning on doing a comparison to GTechniq C5 with it. But for the size of the tin you get with FK1000p then it is a bargain as you can use it on the car body too. :happy2:

Another vote for FK1000 here, great on wheels and paint, fantastic value for money.

Well ill give it a go now i got it. Get some use out of it before it get something else. Wheels could do with a good ole clean anyhow!

Use poorboys wheel sealant or sometimes i use zymol titanium thats really good but a tad expensive
-
+1 for the poorboys wheel sealant - one pot lasts a while because it's durable.
do a seal or two and then top with a couple of coats of wax and your wheel's will be bullet proof :happy2: (but unfortunately not kerb-proof :laugh:)
