Chingy Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 For those lucky enough to have a set of CCW's sitting under their pride and joy, you will also know how unlucky you are with the amount of love and affection these wheels demand......So one rainy Saturday I thought I would kill some.....

bignum Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Good job, do you use any wax on them once cleaned, i use poorboys wax and find the brake dust washes off easy next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 They look very nice. You need to get some sort of ceramic coating on them so it's easy to achieve every time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Great work! I'd take it a step further Colin - I have had polished CCWs for the last 4 years and used to use just Poorboys Wheel Sealant. With my current wheels (LM5T (had Classics before)) I put on a Nanolex coating first and then have consequently put on the Poorboys Sealant - I've had much better results and only really require a hose down to completely clean the wheels.

You need to get some sort of ceramic coating on them so it's easy to achieve every time! Agreed, exploring the options but concerned it would ruin the finish.

SupraP-Z Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 you must have a sore elbow by now for sure! epic result. What exact process did you go through if you dont mind me asking? Some idiot put an acid based cleaner on my polished wheels (Despite telling me it had no acid) The wheels have clouded up and gone milky in places. Only had had them refurbed a few months back, would like to get somewhere near this kind of shine back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the drag pack looks awesome you must have a sore elbow by now for sure! epic result. What exact process did you go through if you dont mind me asking?

Only had had them refurbed a few months back, would like to get somewhere near this kind of shine back! Between 2-3hrs per a Wheel In brief: Applied metal polish and buffed by hand twice. Then twice by machine. Then three lots of Wheel sealent. Now I am no expert but for yours I would think you would need to machine these if they have clouded?
