Default Sealing Wire Wheels

Just got a very nice set of wire wheels for my XJ6. I would like to reseal the spokes before installing the tires. Any suggestions? Internet has lots of stuff but mostly for bikes.
Thanks

Bob,
do you want a sealer that will be semi perm/? search this product as a sample> DIAMOND PROTECH DIAMOND WHEELS KIT......... or do you want a more permanent as in a spray on? after cleaning & polishing you could spray with a high temp/ clear enamel...i have seen that done but if you don't get it right 1st time it doesn't look good.
i have wire rims on my XJ6 S2, many people will cringe at this but when i need to i just spray with oven cleaner, leave for 10 mins/ and hose off........
