Actually ... I bet an old electric toothbrush would be ideal for cleaning alloy wheels.

When dentists recommend 2 minutes per day they are not talking about your alloys.

Gibbo, I do 2 minutes twice a day and one minute inter-dental once a day. Not for alloys though. Tomorrow, alloys will get a good seeing to

That sounds like a good oral hygiene routine. Just remember your 6 monthly check ups.

You beat to that one about NHS dentists. Thought they were extinct.

Oral hygiene is very important, should always be very thorough!

I am an expert in Oral Hygiene as I used to work in that sector. It is scary the number of people who don't own a toothbrush in the less well off areas of the UK.

I've always used an old toothbrush to get into difficult corners on some alloys so an electric one would be a good upgrade.

It must be April 1st ? Even the code to order it is SSCRUBBER ! Sounds like Gareth Gates calling after Jordan when they split up

Would take forever and a day to clean alloys with that, it HAS to be a joke - either that or whoever is buying them has a lot of time on their hands.

Oh, a lot of products on the shelves these days are like this. The adverts make them look like the best thing since sliced bread but they don't work worth a damn once you get them home.

Now, could someone please tell me what was the best thing BEFORE sliced bread?
