Sure do  :happy2:

I'd still wax them inbetween applications of the Poorboys if I were you.  :santa: I usually wax then apply a coat or two of sealant.

i dont rate the poorboys stuff to be honest. Ive yet to use a wheel sealant i get on with. maybe its because i expect too much of them?

i always end up putting some billberry on that and obviously stripping the wax.

i have got some collinite 915 on my alloys at the moment tho, not much better than poorboys!
