Hi guys, trying to refurbish my own 360 GLT wheels...(the boring spokeless ones). Has anyone come across the product that will remove all the tarnish and grime....instead of me having to key with a green pad?

Any ideas :360: sm1

I have used that before and it seemed to work well

Auto glym wheel clean is quite good, but at the end of the day stubborn brake dust requires the right pressure/mechanical removal. Tooth brush and expect sore hands should remove most of it.

If the clear coat is yellowed sanding and re-coating is the only option. Having said that wheels are easy to respray compared to body bits. Do it with the tyre off and respray the rim seal area, for non-leaky tyres.
