Nothing makes a car “pop” more than a handsome set of wheels. Modern car culture today focuses heavily on rims and tires. There are many sub groups that exist in our community. For example, “street machine” fanatics that give their rides an excellent “flush” look with 16 inch wheels and big meaty tires and who can forget the guys who like to stretch their tires to make a statement. A few hours of spirited driving or even simple joy rides to the supermarket can lead to tons of grit and grime that can be a real drag to take off. Spraying it with the hose doesn’t help and no one would even dare hit them with a pressure washer since that could potentially ruin the finish. There is a solution to get that gunk off your wheels and we use plenty of it. We use plenty of products that are tried and true and always get the job done effectively.
Chemical Guys is one of the most popular wash brands on the market right now. Every one of their products is known to be safe for all applications that won’t erode finishes or leave stains. The “Sticky Citrus” wheel cleaner earns it’s attractive nickname from the pleasant “orange” aroma it leaves behind, much better than the “gunk” smell that rises from others on the market. You will need a few more sprays for heavy grime, however, once it starts working, it automatically erases dirt with ease.
Meguiar’s Aluminum Wheel Cleaner can be found almost anywhere unlike Chemical Guys and Adam’s Polishes. We prefer using this when it comes to factory wheels rather than aftermarket. Just one spray is enough to make a big difference. No need to worry about any odor since there is none, yet another plus.
