Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

    How to take care of wheels with clearcoat finish

    The Wheels are ROJA Formula 7s, really expensive, but i got them for cheap. Anyways, it looks like it has a clearcoat finish on it, they're painted gunmetal. So would it be okay to use Eagle 1 A2Z wheel cleaner on it? or should i use something else? what about waxing them? the little pamphlet said to use a cream paste wax every now and then. so how do u take proper care for your wheels?

    wash it good inside and out, put a polymer sealant for a little longer duability once or 2 times a year.

    makes it easier to clean and then on top of the polymer u can just put standard wax once in a while.
    What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

    You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

    Retro!

      so i wash it with just dish washing soap like Dawn and water? and could you give a brand of polymer sealant that works best? I've got this Nanowax i usually wax my car with so that's safe right?

        for me i wash it throughly, including the front which always gets covered in brake dust. i use regular car wash soap. then wax it this will make easier cleaning cause dirt will slip right off the wax. i think there's a MOTHER"S product for rim care forgot the name well hope this helps.

                OH so something like Meguiars Gold Class car wash soap...okay i know where to get that. yeah i've been using Mr Clean. car wash system on my car body does a pretty good job except for that filter, i always have to go over the windows with a squeegy since it leaves not a 100% clean finish on glass.
