Collecting new car in 2 weeks but need advice on something to coat my alloy wheels in so that they stay clear of road dirt etc, does anybody rate Poorboys?

Check out Nanolex they have kept my Evoque looking like new for 4 months now! Including the rims ^_^

Never used poor boys rim sealant as with other wheel wax/sealant it only lasts a few weeks. But a Nano sealant on the other hand will last a year if applied correctly.
Gtechinq C5 is what I use at the moment But Nanolex As super fox said make a excellent range of paint & glass sealants .

Other brands of Nano products are available Wink

I would highly recommend the G-Techniq Wheel Armour. I had my car detailed before delivery with the whole G-Techniq range and it is still looking like new after 12 months.

I'm running gTech C5 wheel armour but Also have Definitive wax Rotundus glaze as a top up protection, if you can, get a nano sealant on the backs as that's where the corrosion sets in

Thanks for the replies looks like nanolex or gTech then.
