Cheers pinks if I wanted to get the sealant you stated and a separate shampoo which would you suggest? Also do they do a cleaner for the dash, not dash board because it's leather. Cheers mate been really helpful looks good stuff! RRS |

I use the autoglym sealant and occasionally wheel cleaner - been on since new and takes 30seconds to clean.

+1 for the Autoglym aerosol spray. Cheap as chips and pretty good stuff. Doesn't last like the liquid sealants buts its a doddle to redo. FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy

If you go for the nano sealent listed, I believe, (i'm sure Polished Bliss could offer advice) if you wanted a cleaner for the wheels then the other link to the cleaner/sealent would be your best option I used to rate Billberrys no acidic wheel cleaner, great for sealed wheels but not so good on burnt on dust For all my plastic dash (lots on the FL2 as you'll know) I use 303 Aerospace protectorant http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/30...ctant.html Great product as i can use on the dash, exterior plastic like mudflaps and engine bay plastic too, best thing is it doesn't leave it all shiny, its left clean and matt/satin finish. Says also can be used on leather too so it might protect the leather dash also (best check with PB on that) Every so often if I need to actually clean the dash, i will use a weak solution of APC (Meguiers All Purpose Cleaner) |

i have used a paint brush in the past, just make sure you tape up any metal with some masking tape first of you'll accidental scratch the alloy if you hit it |

Bilberry, dilute to 50:50 and spray on, works a treat and doesn't have anything harmful in it! |

Best regular treatment I've found is that spray dodgy dealers use to make everything new & shiny, it stays soft & oily and normally comes of with a soapy brush, carefully spray it on, avoiding the discs and move around with a soft brush or cloth |
