What do you use to clean your wheels?

The ones on my Fiesta got really bad after using Wonder Wheels. I now use bilberry, although only had my Focus a few months.

I think some rust is inevitable on the locking nuts as I believe they are steel.

sand them down and paint them black?

I use Meguiars hot rims

You could ditch em completely and swap em for some mcgaurds

Hi, my Mk4 Mondeo's locking wheel nuts quickly rusted after using wonder wheels but my Foci's are perfect because I haven't. Quite clearly wonder wheels isn't suited to unprotected metal or alloy and it states so.
