I've just ordered some new wheels for the car and I'm just wondering what would be the best to seal them with?, I have some collinite 476s that I could put a few layers on or some poor boys wheel sealant. I was also thinking of maybe ordering some finishkare 1000p not sure really?

Wheel sealant is actually designed to stop brake dust etc.

wax / the sealant would also offer a level of protection.

try them all and see.

May just stick to the poor boys then just want to get a few layers on while they are off.

I like Chem Guys Wheel Guard. relatively cost effective and offers decent level of protection and shine

Finish Kare 1000p.....a very durable sealant that can be used on all painted, bare metal and high temperature surfaces, far better than buying a sealant just for wheels imo.

I'd also back James up on this. I use the stuff and would recommend it.
