I'm using Iron X to clean my alloy wheels, best stuff money can buy! These are the original 22 year old wheels.

Looking good.

Lovely update Jeffrey. Top work.

Like a pro! :thumb:

What a team!
Great work lads

The old three spokes look factory fresh

Well impressed with the alloys Jeff. Must buy some iron X soon. Amazing stuff! :thumb:
Also the coolant tank has come up really nice. Surely you didn't use the dish washer without permission? lol

Looks very nice Jeff! Hope to see it soon for real.

More work in the inside...
