What to clean alloy wheels with?
Hey guys,
One of the very few times I've ventured in here and it's to ask for your expert advice

Right, how the fuck do I clean the INSIDE of my alloys? There is so much crap on the inside that my normal shampoo/shitty halfords alloy cleaner and a brush and even a pressure washer cannot lift, so needing to bring out the heavy artillery! What do you guys recommend please?
Thanks!

Meguiars wheel brightner, online shops like cleanyourcar, elitecarcare etc
Can mix it 4:1 for heavy stuff and 10:1 for general clean up.
Is about 4 litres, so mixed 10:1 is best value you can get.
Maybe use neat on insides if it's that bad, or wet and dry 1000 2000 and 3000 grit.
The smoother the finish, the better your wheel sealant will form a barrier, and will be harder to get wheels in such a state again.

I have both and used the wheel sealant on my gfs ka alloys put 3 layers on the alloy now when i clean them its just a case of jetting the brake dust of and if there really dirty a bit of soapy water and a quick brush off
Agree with above
