Dirty Porsche Wheels

Lady called yesterday and her car hasn't been washed in months. Got there this mornring, the car was in average dirty condition but the wheels were in sad shape. Sprayed them them down with SimpleGreen, let them soak for a few minutes while setting up. Washed car, then washed wheels last. Power washed, wash them with sponge and left them pretty clean.

She was shocked, claiming the car never has looked so clean. LADY, IT JUST NEEDED TO BE WASHED!!!

In & out in under 30 min, $75 in my pocket and I was gone to the next appointment.

Holy snap,simple green did a sweet job of some messy wheels. How come people complain that simple green is a hazard to use when it works so good. There are other products out there that are far more dangerous..i would be carefull around aluminum as i have seen it leave some nasty streaking..you did fine job on those wheels.

Since they were coated ... I would have hit them with a little water, soaked them liberally with some Poorboys Spray/Rinse, and two minutes later washed them off. Your hands and sponge would have never touched them. Amazing wheel cleaner when used correctly.

Wow, that is one bang-up job! Did you hack up your hands trying to clean them on the inside??? Those massive rotors look nasty sharp...
