What To Use On Inside of Rims?

**CityofAngels** · 08-24-2011, 11:42 PM

I'm thinking of removing my rims and cleaning the insides of them. This hasn't been done in almost 7 years.

Any product recommendations? The rims are chrome and the outsides are fine.

Agree on the Sonax. Spray it and let it soak for a little bit. Use the brush to work it in. Great stuff.

sonax, megs wheel brightener, chemical guys diablo, p21s wheel gel.....in that order!

sonax is safe on all wheels and does a GREAT job
wheel brightener is an acid and should be used with complete care
diablo works well
p21s is lighter IME but still safe and effective

oh, and make sure you are going to coat them with something like opti-coat. It will last MUCH MUCH longer than any sealant wax will, and brake dust and tar will come right off in the future with just normal wash shampoo and a brush (like when they were brand new and not neglected!!!! lol)

a sealant or a wax will only last about 3-4 weeks due to the heat breakdown, but a coating will provide MUCH longer protection.
