The best product for your Alloys is Finishkare Hi-temp paste wax.

Clean them well, us a paint cleanser, SRP will do and apply the FK.

Will last all winter. :yes:

foam applicators are usually recommended Hell, I use http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... yId_165609" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; on the main panels although on wheels its abit fiddly getting in between the spokes so a microfibre cloth is sometimes abit easier

I use foam, quite often an old polishing pad cut into appropriate sizes.
