| strong wheel cleaner
I am looking to try a really strong wheel cleaner for the tough, tough job that occasionally comes along. I have been using ARO and 303 cleaner full strength but was wondering if either DP or P21 gel is better?

I just tried the 1z wheel cleaner and my fathers a4 wheels never looked better. It says on the bottle that it does not contain acid or lye but it has something in it. The smell is very strong but it works.

It is so strong it eats up through a chemical sprayer. Poorboy's S-n-R is not for all wheels though.

I've had great success with Meg's Wheel Brightener on wheels that were no match for any other cleaner I've tried. It worked wonders on an Explorer I did not too long ago where the DP gel wouldn't even budge the brake residue on it.

It says safe for plastic wheels which are probably the easiest to damage, I would think??
