today i tried armorall quicksilver wheel cleaner since its been sitting in the garage in a small spray bottle. spray on, wait 30 seconds, hose off. works incredible. no scrubbing at all!

 

they all work good in the beginning.....just wait, after using it a while, your rims start to get immune to it for some reason, and it stops working so good..

 

Holy sh*t I thought I was the only one who thought this way. I guess its true. But Meguirs makes a good Wheel cleaner. They look new 2 me after every time i use it.

 

ill have to try that

 

I would not use that product, it is a very strong acid, it will dull wheels when used over time, we have seen lots of wheels of all kinds dulled with that kind of stuff over the years.......

I only use car wash and water to clean my wheels....

 

Bet that's why my center caps are tan now, not silver. I used wheel cleaners about 3 years ago.

 

if i use car soap...my rims will not come clean, how about dish soap?

 

Dawn would be fine to use on your wheels if you need extra cutting power, I might use Simple Green also, it is mild and biodegrable I believe....

Some say the Organge Blast is good, should be citrus based

I wash my cars and trucks once per week so the brake dust never has a chance to build up and I Zaino Z-2 or Z-5 the wheels surfaces also, so brake dust and dirt have no way of sticking...

 

yeah the **** is pretty strong stuff......i got it in a huge cut on my fingertip and it burned like a mother ****er.
centercaps get discolored from oxidation
