Re: Alloy wheel cleaner
Actually yes you normally do. You need to refine the finish with a milder polish. Use something like G3 or AG Paint Renovator on a car and it will come up nice and shiny but the paint will still feel quite rough to touch. Go over it again with a milder cutting polish and it will become a lot smoother and even shinier still. There's no need to use a "Paint Renovator" unless the damage is quite severe though.
So really what you are saying is that paint renovator is an aggressive polish, then a normal polish will take care of whirls in the paint then wax to protect,
But really I guess if you use a paint renovator then you don't need polish?
