Can anyone recommend a set / single brush they can recommend in order to get through the spokes and clean the calipers, and Inner rim.. ? Also I had the wheels Gtechnic free of charge by the OPC.. and am wondering if they did the Calipers / inside rims/ inside center wheel caps ? Has anyone had this done by their OPC and knows if they include the above? Thanks .

Forensic detailing channel is great watch πŸ‘

I use wheel woolies (set of three) mainly on bigger easier to get to alloys.

I use the EZ detailing brush (think it’s the mini / small one) which I find excellent on these wheels which are 18” which have similar pain in he ar@e spokes.

My understanding is the OPC does not remove the wheels to Gtechniq it all including the calipers unfortunately. Mine were done by a pro Gtechniq detailer who removes the alloys and once the work is complete let’s them cure for 24 hours. 18 months later and still going strong.

Thanks... I had a feeling they didn’t πŸ™... I think I will join you and have mine done completely... do you have a rough price you should pay? Your mini looks great :D

Thanks. πŸ‘
I had the whole car done inside and out which took around 4 days so not sure on just the wheels. The Macan was the same.

Getting the wheels done is well worth it and should not be too expensive and the washing makes it so much easier. Especially on the Turbo style wheels.
