All

Please can people let me know if there is any best way to clean the back matte alloys on the GTS?

Cheers

On my Macan GTS I use this...




agitated with a small brush followed by a power wash, then wheel woolies with an ordinary shampoo and then finish with a coat of protective wax...takes around a week .....😂😂

I use this on my 911 GTS matt wheels:

I think Paul may use the same.

As he says, although the cleaner is great, it takes time and effort to bring them up clean as the matt surface seems to cling on to dirt.

I use the same on mine and it’s a great product but the wheels are still a sod to clean.

I use IronPRO from RACEGLAZE, works well but as already stated still needs some agitation and final finishing. Not used the Bilt Hamber product but I think from the description that they are similar products and can see that the BH product is £10 cheaper for 5 litres, so will give it a go to compare.
