Just finished a very simple and satisfying job. I removed my wheel nuts (2 at a time so as not to have to remove the wheel) and cleaned them up with a wire brush attachment in a drill. It’s only really surface rust but looks loads better now. I’ve also ordered some wheel nut caps to stick over the top now that they’re clean. 
Good call on the plastic caps. They will smarten your wheels up a lot.View attachment 144267View attachment 144268Just finished a very simple and satisfying job.

Spray with ACF50, anti-rust/corrosion treatment from the Airplane industry, also favourite of the motorcycle fraternity, then put on the Plastic covers, or not.View attachment 144267View attachment 144268Just finished a very simple and satisfying job.

I will do that. Thank you
Just bought a bottle of this to use on my Triumph T120 - hopefully it does what it says on the tins!
