So i just got new wheels and they are multi spoke and really hard to apply wheel wax on. Is there a spray on substitute thats close to it?

try some opti seal...it will do the trick.

i have tried the opti seal and it helped but my car has typical german brakes and it needs more. saw a video on amor all wheel protectant aerosol which looked good. will try it this week from autozone. go figure

Wheels are going to be tricky by nature. Nice smooth stock rims usually aren't a problem, but the really nice three piece rims are hell. ...on wheels. ;) There are some nifty little Finger Pockets (http://www.autogeek.net/wgpockets.html) that are nice when working with wheels. I also use a little tool kit called Slick Stixxx (http://www.slickstixxx.com/) when I'm detailing wheels. This kit is meant for motorcycle detailing, but I use it for engine detailing and wheel detailing more than bikes. It even comes in handy on the interiors. You wrap your towel or applicator around the points and it helps push the product under the rivets and into the corners of spokes. Definitely a must have if you are a detailer.
