Default Well that was a good test of a product

Member Masonny recently purchaced some of the wheel cleaner and gave it a good test for me

3 door wheels that look like they have never seen a sponge before








Mix the non acidic cleaner with water to dilute, spray onto wheels, leave for a bit, and rinse with a hose.








Even I'd be happy with that result

YUP so simple yet effective - a great product!

Excellent, tempting to get some white multispokes now because they will be so easy to clean

yup, it comes with the dojj seal of approval

on a set of rims i bought form martin about a year ago that have been washed along with the car but never actually specifaclly been cleaned on their own they made they virtually as new, and on another set that's been sat about for 3 years they even took the soaked in brake dust off, without a brush, at a 5:1 dilution

the only downside was that i used a brush that sent dirty crap everywhere beacuse i used it on the calipers, but if you use a hosepipe with a small ammount of pressure it should just hose off wihtout any problems

I guess so Rich as long as its dirty, should be fine Nick as its non acidic.

The small sample trial bottles posted in the trade thread are always worth a try
