Looks spectacular. The detailing of the wheels is especially impressive. I note you even got the calipers to shine. What products are you using on the wheels if I may ask?

Thanks for the kind words.....

I use Sonax FULL EFFECT wheel cleaner, try googling it and watching a few videos, very impressive stuff and best of all, non acidic.

A little goes a long way, I usually buy the 5ltr tub as that makes it much more affordable. Hot soapy water, Fairy liquid / Dawn and the use of a wheel brush means every little nook and cranny is done.

The tyres are then blacked with a simply "Wet n Black" or similar product and applied using a shoe shine type sponge, then buffed to avoid tyre sling
