Review: Wolfgang Uber Wheel Cleaner/Daytona Speed Master PRO
For this review I am using the wheels on my car as the test subject. I have covered 600 miles round trip since the last cleaning driving out to Pasadena California for the 14th annual BimmerFest car show. Below in the pictures you can see that the wheels appear to be decently clean but when hit with a wheel cleaner that has Iron attacking capabilities that changes color while working you can truly see how dirty the wheels really are. After using a few different wheel cleaners that don’t have the abilities of Wolfgang Uber Wheel Cleaner, my preference will always be to use a wheel cleaner such as Uber seeing how this stuff works. It’s just not the same using other standard wheel cleaners and not seeing the product work. You could always chase the standard wheel cleaner with Iron-X or equivalent but now you are adding another step of applying the product, agitating it, and rinsing the wheel down a second time to an already lengthy and time consuming process of thoroughly cleaning the wheels in the first place with a proper wheel cleaner with iron attacking properties such as Uber.
For the tools used for the wheel cleaning process a combination was utilized in the form of the Daytona Speed Master, the Daytona Speed Master PRO, and the Mothers wheel brush. I will be comparing the Speed Master to the PRO wheel brush in this review. After applying a generous amount of Uber wheel cleaner and letting it soak for a few minutes I grabbed the PRO wheel brush and proceeded to clean the barrels of the wheel. The brush head with the bristles are a bit firmer than the Speed Master and the handle is also thicker and sturdier allowing more aggressive agitation without the fear of breaking the handle allowing you to scrub a bit harder if need be than with the Speed Master. When it came to getting the brush between the caliper and the wheel barrel the PRO brush simply would not fit and the Speed Master was used as the stem of the brush is much thinner allowing the Speed Master to get into tighter areas that the PRO version can only dream about reaching.

I forgot the after agitation shots from the passenger side wheel so these are from the driver side
This wheel cleaner foams up rather nicely after being thoroughly agitated

Very nice review, Mike!
How does it compare to Sonax FE wheel cleaner?
How long did you let the solution dwell on the wheels? I'm surprised to see that it didn't dry up. How hot was it outside?

Sure thing. Who doesn't like a wining combination!?
I must add that all my pictures are unedited. Pulled straight from the camera.

I would say 2-3 cars as opposed to 3-5

Thanks Marc!
Haven't used SFE yet.
I let it dwell maximum 2 minutes before agitation. Any longer and it would start to dry. It was roughly 90 outside.

Re: Review: Wolfgang Uber Wheel Cleaner/Daytona Speed Master PRO
Nice review Mike, enjoyed your blackfire blackice one and this one.
I always found IronX, Wolfgang wheel cleaner, sonax, all too expensive to clean my wheels reguarly, I've always had great results with just car soap in a bucket (only difference is it doesn't break down iron and turn purple) but for me that was clean enough. Do you regularly use these type of wheel cleaners?
I actually cleaned one wheel with soapy water and another with this wheel cleaner and noticed they cleaned the same (wolfgang was not cleaner) it just was more fun to use due to the purple effect
but overall nice reviews so far, I enjoy reading them
