  • What to clean with...

    Hey everyone,

    Hope all is well

    Just wondering what people would suggest, to clean these new wheels i recently purchased???




    They do get very filthy, an on average i probably do 600kms a week and it gets a wash every week

    I have - Wheel Brightener
    - APC
    - Or the good old soap and water... but i think i need something a lil tougher then soap and water.

    Thanks

    Thanks again

    if you wash them on a weekly basis, i don't think you need anything more then soap and water. I have some nice chrome wheels myself and I wash them evey week with soap and water and a dedicated mitt and they look as good as the first day i got them

      The more often you do them, the milder you'll need.

      After car soap, the Aluminum Wheel Wash is next mildest, and then the All Wheel Wash.

      If they are entirely painted/clear coated, you can also clay/paint clean them once in a while.

        Is that polished aluminum? If it is, you don't want to use Wheel Brightener on them because it will really mess them up, you would want to use Aluminum Wheel Cleaner.

        I once put swirls in my paint just to see what it looked like.

        I don't always detail cars, but when I do, I prefer Meguiar's.
        Remove swirls my friends.

            If you wash them weekly. I see no need for anything other then soap and water.
            quality creates its own demand
