Alloy wheel protection

I've got some halibrand replicas that I have polished up to a mirror finish.
What is the best thing to protect them?
Should I just wax them or would I be better off spraying them with a laquer? If I spraying is best, what's the best way to prepare them?
(the tyres are off the rims)
Thanks
Simon

RE: Alloy wheel protection

Hi Simon

My wheels are in at Image as we speak getting repolished
They do not recommend Laquer but state in their maintenace Leaflet as follows

" We recommend very frequent cleaning of the wheels with the same detergents you would use on the car body, clean the polished rim with Autosol "

In addition they advertise their own acud free products

Image Wheel Cleaner
Image Wheel Protector

Give them a bell on 0121 522 2442

Happy Blastin

Regards

James
