I wondering what you guys and girls use to clean your matte black wheels after traveling to a show. So that they're ready to be judged and shown. Thanks in advance. Joe

I would suggest Adams VRT or Nanolex Matte Polish, or as chicagobulls said any quick detailer. Anything else is overkill.

Waterless Wash for safe cleaning of light road dirt/dust, then treat with SVRT.

This and dont forget a high quality micro fiber towel. A waffle weave is my preference on waterless washing. Keep the SVRT on the rubber not the rims
