    You can, both in matt and a glossifier:




    I'm unclear on whether you can use the glossifier by itself, or need the matt clear as well... ho hum, in the end it all too complicated and I used a really good wax instead, inside and out

      john the scrubs come from the top edge corner of the rear bumper. i had 235 45 17 on the rear. scraped. now 225.45 on rear but on s4 wheels so et42 IIRC. speed bumps make the odd growl from the rear. i run a 205,45 at front at mo. too narrow.

        That's food for thought, think I'll get a can and experiment.

            Got the new rivets today, type I got is on the right(e-bay)......the one on the left is what I got the last time from Prestige Wheels(http://prestigewheel.com/)
            I'd of started to drill out the old ones but I need the car driving in a non-tyre-rubbing fashion for the weekend so I've started to polish up the rims instead.......it'll detract from the rest of the wheel!

                Usually use a sponge to clean the wheels.... it wouldn't end well!

                      Looks very tidy now. Is it the wheels in the picture you are going to refurb?

                              Aye, all 4. Would've done the spare as well but it appears to have metal rivets/bolts ?.....not plastic. Your wheels will look good after a trip to the powder-coaters!
