![Question](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Hey everyone.
I just got a used set of Centerline Convo Pro's for racing and limited street duty. I got them looking damn good with some Mother's Billet Polish but incase some water and **** gets on them. I want it where I can wash it off or wipe off and keep them clean.
Whats a good Wax/Protectant.
I do have a can of Cleaner Wax from Meguiars, as well as NXT and #26 Hi-Tech.
Have seen post about people using cleaner wax. Will this be considered sufficent protection?? The Pic is Pre-Polish, had water spots and smudges the cleaned up killer.

I worked the ring of the rim 1/3rd of the time and then each spoke by itself and then the Stud ring. I was way ahead of myself and started on the 40+ dents around the inner ring. Using my finger to aggitate and then Wadded up terry cloth.
I still have some minor spotting near the bolts but IMO unless your polishing, your not going to notice.
The only Power product that I like is the Powercone. I have definitly found uses for that.
I have used a Power ball on a DIFFERENT set of Convo Pros and the edges in the holes are sharp and it wash chopping up the ball.
Also the Mother's Billet seeming is a more aggressive product and required really no pressure. Just aggitation in percise, circular motion allowed for brillant results.
