want to clean up my mk2 rims to sell them. any ideas of what the best product is to use without damaging the rims.?? hope to clean the inside dish in particular.

thanks

Prepsol or wax and grease remover. Just don't let it dry. Rub it off with a rag and then hose.

Or the buffer that tyre shops use to get the old weights tape off the inside, the lasttime I had tyres done, I used this while they were off, bloody awsome stuff.

I used a product called shift-It which is an all purpose metal cleaner.. that and abit of elbow grease and the wheels came up a treat

if you got the mark 2 17s I would be careful on wat you use, I think they are a coated rim rather than a metal finish. I know my bf 17s are. I wouldnt be taking to them with a buff or harsh metal abrasive. though I know the ba-bf 18s were a metal finish so that should be ok.

Yeah the BA/BF 17's need a soft cleaner. I use baby shampoo on them and also the whole car.

do you massage them afterwards?

No, but I tuck them in each night.

tech wax... as advised to me by spray painter... car detail enthusiast.. for the face of the mags..

as for the hard to get at places... refer to Envy T (above)

best job means taking the rims off the beast

Try some dilluted ct18 and elbow grease.that works on anything.spray it on and let it soak.then use something like a kitken sponge.
