my wheels are powder coated so i was just wondering what products would be safe to use to shine them up a lil. i need something pretty strong, but wont damage the paint. my brakes pads throw alot of dust and the dust almost like sticks to the wheels so ya..

also, im pretty sick of using paste wax stuff. i use Royal Blue, really great stuff and it shines like no other, but my care for a shiney car has kinda gone down. far from a show car and driving this thing everyday, no matter what weather, with black paint just dosnt work out. i just cant spend 5 hours washing/waxing my car every week anymore...what would u guys recommend as a fast, easy spray type wax? i kno meguiars and turtle wax sprays are pretty popular but i dunno which is better or if theres something better then thos out there..

thanks!!!

for a spray wax i reccoment eagle one nanowax spray does a really good job at shineing things up quick as far as the wheels use bleach-white cleaner u can find it everywhere it won't harm the powder coat and to scrub it i recommend justa shop towel it'll work fine with bleach-white

just use regular wheel cleaner. Spray on, let it soak for 30 seconds, hose it off. Then, get down there with a crappy towel and put some elbow grease into it. Pretty much the only way you're going to get good results.

I am definitly not a fan of turtle wax.... but powder coated wheels should technically stand up to most cleaners. Its the painted wheels you have to worry about.
