Any other things I need to do to keep them clean and lovely?

They are not the same as your wheel with the anodized finish. They are actually just painted and very closely match the wheel. These are the caps you'll likely get: Pelican Parts - Product Information: 911-361-032-00-M100. Harvey told me that he can't anodize the caps to duplicate the wheel finish and these are very close, which I can attest to.

When I lost a couple of mine that's what I replaced them with and are identical to the ones I got from Harvey. But ouch, the price has increased a lot in the last two years -from $32 to $47 - wow...

And for your original question, I normally use regular car wash soap or even dish soap on my Weidman RSR finish, or P21S if they're really grungy.

IMHO I would like it better with center caps in the frosted finish as well..
If there are no caps the "centers" should be nicely cleaned up to enchance
its appearance

I had Harvey do some frosted center caps for me. He wasn't real excited about it but it was worth a shot. When I got them I wasn't real excited either. Frosted center caps just don't seem to work. Polished - or none at all. Those are my two choices.



btw - I'm really starting to like rattle can black for my track wheels. Easy to maintain. Easy to paint. Also very easy to notice if you have any cracks developing.
