What alloy wheel cleaning products do you recommend?
I've recently bought a Volkswagen Golf GTE, but the wheels seem to have a mark embedded into the metal itself. Are there any cleaning agents you recommend?

An acid-free alloy wheel cleaner like Autoglym Custom Wheel Cleaner will do the job. It lifts brake dust and dirt away and can usually be pressure-washed off, though you may need to use a brush for stubborn spots.
From choosing the right tyre to what to do when it goes wrong - we have the answers.
