Just a thought.... Do any of you clean the
underside of your car if you happen to be
under it doing something else ????

i have always found the cleaning fanatics hard to understand

a fiend of mine is fanatic about keeping his cars neat and tidy

he has recently admitted he has a bad case of ocd and is getting treatment !

since i bought mine, it has not left the underground car park unless it is very sunny!!

very anal about cleaning the wheels though, have been known to wash then twice in a day - they get so much bloody brake dust so easily!

You're better off applying a silicon based spray or something like Aerospace 303 to repel the brake dust before it gets onto them. Or you can polish and wax them now and then which is why I'd like as few spokes as possible smile

Gloss black rims go brown with brake dust very quickly!!
Best colour I've found is bronze, closely followed by anthracite.
