Re: Need some help...

I went to a local dollar store, and bought a assortment of toilet bowl brushes. I spray All Purpose Cleaner in the wheel wells. Agitate it with the toilet bowl brushes, then rinse.

Door jambs and such I just use a microfiber from Wal-Mart and clean the areas.

Hope this helps.

Re: Need some help...

Do you leave wheels on or take them off? do you recommend spraying apc on doorjambs and pressure cleaning?

Re: Need some help...

Meh honestly I think it all depends how dirty they are getting on a regular basis. If you are constantly getting them dirtier than what a simple hosing can take care of then we might need to know why that is.

I am seriously crazy about my car, but I dont spend much time / effort on wells. You are better off spending it in other areas imo.

Yeah, APC and assorted brushes. I got some with a wire core, and bent it a bit.

I just leave the wheels on.

Door jambs are more of a wipe around kind of thing with an old towel.

My wheel wells are lined with a felt like material, which perhaps most new cars are, is APC still the product of choice?

Mine are also lined with a felt-like material. I usually just hose them off with some good water pressure. Every so often I will go ahead and spray some APC in there and agitate as best as possible before rinsing them.

Re: Need some help...

APC would still be ok, might need a bit softer of a brush to get into the felt.

Re: Need some help...

I also have the felt wheel wells. I just use apc and the toilet bowl brush. Works well.
