Citroen C3 Wheel Detail
Hiya
I had noticed the wheels on my mum’s Citroen getting brake dust build up rather quickly after washing, and she doesn’t do many miles (100miles a week max), so it was time for a wheels off detail. I was to say the least shocked at the state in just 38,000 miles on a 2002 car (mine have always cleaned easy and it’s a 2003 with more than 40k on), unfortunately this top of the range car has pads all round. It took at least four (one hour each) hours in total. The good news is they are staying a lot cleaner for longer.
(in some photos there is a tin of cellulose thinners this was not used, it was left there from me cleaning the paint brushes after touching up stone chips etc)
Products:
Wonder Wheels
Megs Hot Rims
APC
Fairy Power Spray (for arch liners, no photos, sorry)
Various Brushes and Sponges
AG Intensive Tar Remover
Megs GC Liquid Wax
Collinite 476
Front Wheel Befores:
Front Wheel Afters:
Rears:
Some Different Tyre Dressings:
AG Rubber and Vinyl Care
Sonus Total Eclipse
Megs Hot Shine
After Whole Car:
Thanks
