It's sad that the previous owner didn't keep the wheels clean.... what are the seats like ??? :D

As Banker said, Surf City do a low effort cleaner/polish suitable for the older owner... :whistle:

I'd recommend using Colinate insulation Wax to protect the wheels afterwards. It offers long term protection in my humble opinion :shhh:

I find 845 insulation wax gives me a good six months plus.
