Alloy wheel cleaner

If you have an Autosmart dealer near you, you can pick up 5l of Smart Wheels for around £15. I dilute mine 5:1 in a foaming spray bottle and it lasts ages. I normally use normal shampoo in a bucket with the halfords alloy wheel wash mitt and associated brushes.

I got a good foam spray head on my Bilberry at the weekend. Great tip that ! Hardly used any.

Thanks for heads-up on Autosmart too :smile:
 
Have to say, if heavy road grime wants shifting along with embedded steel filings then iron x is fantastic, other than that I just use a citrus pre wash and let the power washer do most of the hard work, at the end of the day you'll always neeed to use a sponge/mit to do the final clean, the wheel cleaner is just a primary and unless your wheels are really bad half the time you don't even need it as the power washer will remove just as much without the wheel cleaner even touching them. if your washing wheels every week you don't need it bud :smile:

I find with a lot of detailing products it a placebo effect.
