Which Products To Clean And Hi-Temp Seal Painted/polished Rims?

Hi guys

I am picking up my new wheels soon, but before i put them on the car I wanted to thoroughly clean then seal them. I have two questions.

1. What high temp sealant do people recommend? At the moment i'm looking at Finish Kare FK 1000P Hi Temp Sealant? And will it be suitable for a rim with a painted centre and polished step lip (assume lip is clear coated).

2. What wheel cleaner? I want something that won't strip the sealant, and that is safe to use on a painted centre and polished step lip. This is proving difficult as a lot of brands say they suit painted wheels, but not polished - and vice versa.

Rims in question:

I use Chemical Guys Wheel Guard

For cleaning, once they are sealed you probably wont need harsh wheel cleaners, just use the same carwash you use on the body of the car. Seal the inside barrel as well they are a b*tch to clean properly if neglected
