alloy wheel cleaner

[rlp]

Just went to wash my car and realised that I had run out of wheel cleaner, pinched kitchen cleaner. Best I've ever used on my alloys. Astonish kitchen cleaner from Asda £1=00 / bottle, Brilliant.

Its a very strong APC

Perhaps too harsh without diluting it at least 50%....Just to be cautious

 

Ingredients

Thanks for the warning, how does it compare to normal wheel cleaner and what damage can it cause ? bearing in mind that it is hosed off almost immediately.

[fabiamk2SE]

From what i understand.. Most really good wheel cleaners are PH neutral to help prevent damage.

[devonutopia]

The autosmart wheel cleaner I use isn't acidic, and can be diluted.  I use it as #1 cleaner on all wheels I do, and then tend to follow up with iron-out in case anything still remains.

What is sonax xtreme wheel cleaner like? As I purchased the wrong one by accident d'oh (should have been QD)

[ChrisRs]

Sorry can't help you

Not used it

Have you done a search?

[M12MKD]

Had a quick search and it seems ok.

So I had a go and it seems to work very well.....and as a bonus smells really nice.

Look at me......my first review!!!

[Hunty278]

It's decent isn't it.

A wee bit expensive and don't use it every wash. Good for a thorough decontamination then seal the wheels. You only need normal shampoo then until they're looking grubby after a wash.

[M12MKD]

I think you're right Hunty278. Defo made the first clean on the wheels very easy! Alloys now sealed with poorboys pink stuff (can't remember what its called).

[samuir1974]

Alloys now sealed with poorboys pink stull (can't remember what its called).

 

Poorboys Wheel Sealant - perhaps?

[M12MKD]

Poorboys Wheel Sealant - perhaps?

 

aye I think that's it........it's a technical name so no wonder I could remember!!

[ChrisRs]

Just something to consider....PB Wheel Sealant is not very durable.

You will need to reapply it every month at least

But it does give a good finish and repels dirt quite well
