    Flitz PreClean rules.

    I had a thread I posted up a few weeks ago that showed a snowmobile that I used Flitz PreClean on. I cleaned up the side steps with it. Worked great.

    Well, I got the chance to try this out on some Super Duty aluminum rims yesterday. This stuff continues to impress the hell outta me! I love it. The Pre Clean alone, makes the aluminum look fantastic.

    I spray it on, agitate with a soft bristled brush, then use my steam cleaner to remove it. Check out how these rims came out with JUST the Flitz PreClean.



    You can see the front one in this shot



    These rims looked pretty bad before I used the Flitz. I wish I got a before picture...but I honestly didn't expect these results. For sure, next time I will get a before shot.

    No joke, I called AG and ordered 8 bottles of this stuff. Yeah, it's that good.

    Awesome!
    Sounds like they need to make the pre-clean available in gallon sizes.

    Yeah!!! That's why I called. I found some sites that supposidely sold the gallon refill. But nobody had any in stock. So, AG customer service gave me a discount on the 8 bottles. They really need gallons of this stuff.

    I guess you could say it's an aluminum APC. It's specific to aluminum. I've never had a product get results like this from aluminum so carelessly. They really have a great product here.

    I've tried other stuff, but it leaves spots and still doesn't clean to this extent. Buy a bottle, I guarantee you'll like it.

    Well I use some stuff called Red Thunder. I get it from Malco. It's concentrated and I buy a 5 gallon pale of it. I know there are some good APC that AG sells, but I've got no experience in using them. I use way too much APC to just buy a gallon.

    I know, I'm surprised I don't hear of more people praising this stuff. It changed my whole outlook on aluminum polishing. The PreClean alone, does an amazing job.

    I'm gonna be picking up some beat up aluminum rims tomorrow. I plan on polishing, and reselling them. It will make great pictures for my website as well.

    Plus, it will make a damn good thread of course! Maybe it will help push the Flitz products. I was extremely surprised I couldn't get my hands on a 1 gallon refill of this stuff. I had to buy 8 bottles instead, haha.
