cleaners

This may belong in the detailing section but it's not the busiest on there and the wheels are Giulia exclusives. So with the wheels having a more matt look to them, what are the best cleaning products? I used my usual non acid based purple stuff (I think it's wonder wheels stuff) but it left...

I have just started this thread in the 916 forum but wondered if it might be more relevant in the 'Engines' section. http://www.alfaowner.com/Forum/alfa-gtv-andamp-916-spider/959858-fuel-system-cleaners.html

Hi guys, hoping to pick you detailing/valet brains if i may? Decided over christmas that i would strip one of my Zender Milano's and have a go at refurbing the rim and thought if i could achieve a decent finish i would save myself £00's and be satisfied that it was done right? If i fail or...

Does anyone have any opinions on these or is getting out the dyson the only option?

Has anyone ever used them ? I am cleaning a pair of dellorto 40 carbs for my Sud using carb cleaner and metal polish etc but takes forever. I have seen ultrasonic cleaners that clean carbs, anyone used them for carbs or other small parts, be a hell of a lot easier than all this elbow grease :cry:

For the ones who have the headlamp washers: check them because I checked mine this weekend and found that the left one doesn't spray!! Instead the water just sprays out round the front indicator eek! I think that there is something loose. I'll ask the dealer to fix it when i give him my...

I`m sure our resident car detailing gurus can help with this one.I really hate cleaning alloys and I have often been disappointed with the results of some of the proprietary wheel cleaners on offer. I`ve yet to find anything as effective as sitting down with a small brush but this is extremely...
