Poorboys Wheel Sealant

[ROSS18]

Is it worth buying it?I use colly 476 whick works well

 

[FiDoDiDo]

It's meant to be very good from what I hear, I would say get some.

Nice product, works well. Really needs something like SRP first though.

 

[ROSS18]

I clay bared the alloys and was shocked with the amount of tar that came off themI feel that the 476 dosnt clean them i you know hat i mean but they are nice and shiny

 

[Rich]

Both the Poorboys and the 476 will only seal not polish or clean hence the meed for a polish first unless you go for one of the cleaner based Wheel Sealants to do a one step with.

I use the SRP, Sealant (currently CG Jet Seal) and a couple of layers of 476s. Last time I applied the wax was in Early September and still coming up well now and beading like the body panels...but will look to polish and reseal over the course of the holidays. Screw revision lol.

i do srp, egp x 2 over 24 hrs min and then will be applying a coat of 476 at some point this week.

 

[Brand86]

^ Its a good method. The 476s can be layered too. Might not even be necessary for the sealant, I'm just a bit of a loser

My chosen Wheelseal.

AG SRP, AG EGP x 2 or 3 twice a year then use the Poorboys Wheel Sealant or Swissvax Autobahn whenever I get the chance.

I've never done anything to my wheels apart from shampoo.

ive got some RimWax but my current alloys are so fiddly to wax i can never be bothered, puttin some willy wheels on tomorrow which should make things a lot easier

 

[Jakeboy]

I used the Poorboys stuff on my M3, which had very fiddly wheels to clean and it worked a treat. Took time applying it and put on a couple of coats, but more than made up for the time as subsequent cleaning was made so much easier.

srp then wheel sealent is the daddy imo

 

[sh33n]

I use and recommend it.

How long will 4 coats of Poorboys give me?Thinking to get the 4th coat on today

Try Carlack Nano systematic care. It cleans them up and lays down a layer of sealant. IMHO it's a better cleaner & selant than SPR by far. The only thing it doesn't do as well is filling light scratches.

 

[BRUN]

how does the poorboys compare to the chemical guys ?

 

[steven.m]

I've just bought some, need to give my wheels a detail so will elt you know how it gets on.

It is swings and rounabouts on that one ideally it would be good to use both the SRP for its minor correctional abilitys and the Carlack for it's chemical cleaning ability.

For me SRP wins as I have litres of the stuff.

You and layer Poorboys but not GC because it has cleaners in it

 

[BRUN]
