New here. Got a used (but spotless, fingers crossed!), C Class AMG Line Premium Plus.
The wheels are diamond cut.
I have read not to apply any chemicals on the wheels, which I havent so far.
Should I use a lint free cloth, with water to clean them, or is there a wheel cleaner I can use?
Also, what about getting the car jet washed? Im happy to wash it myself and get hands dirty with a normal washer and sponge and decent brand shampoo, but the car is in mind condition and I want to keep it that way as long as possible (apart from the scratch magnet interior central console, but thats another story for another day!).
I use wheel cleaner and somtimes just some soap to clean my wheels. Jet spray is bad for the paint so i stay away from it. I just use my hose. I use car shampoo (italian brand). For the interior I rely on the magic of water.

I have jet washed my cars for the past 5-6 years, no damage to the paint, so as long as you keep a proper distance between the car and jet washer, there sholdn't be any problems.
I've used chemicals on diamond cut wheels, without any issues.
