Hi All,

Has anyone got the M Sport Matt Black Alloys?

What's the advice on cleaning / caring for Matt Black alloys?

Thanks

Paul

Not the easiest to clean with the normal brushes! Adopted the spray down with "P21 wheel gel" leave for a few minutes then jet wash off wish id tried this method (product) years ago wheels no longer a time consuming PITA!

I would like to know this as well. Is there some special wax or sealant for this kind of finish?

I used just Zaino CS after careful cleaning. Works great (as Zaino always does) and does not change the look of matt finish.

So I'm not the only one that finds that using Zanio CS on the wheels works great (been using it on wheels from various BMWs for as long as CS has been out). However, never had matt wheels so it's good to know it works on them also. Thanks.

Any type of high quality wheel cleaners would work. I use Einszett 1Z Colortec on my wheels and it worked very well on my previous set of matt black wheels. More importantly, beware of brushes with bristles, soft or otherwise on your matt wheels. I use wheel woolies with ultra soft fibres. Take your time with the matt rims!

Sonax is better than p21! Only spray on wash off without a brush!
Wait till the purple color turns green!
