So I had about 234oz (7 liters) of P21S Gel Wheel Cleaner, but after today maybe I have around 200oz as I applied it to my G35 Coupe's wheels earlier as part of my wash process.
I used so much product because I applied it onto the tire sidewalls, the rims, and the wheel wells just to see how powerful the stuff is. It wasn't a very good indicator because I regularly use wheel cleaners that make me cough but are quite thorough.
Being tired of foul-smelling cough-inducing wheel cleaners, I'd like to go with the P21S Gel but I'm curious as to how effective it is. I know the cleaning power of the Gel formula is based on time, but here's an example:
I'm going to clean up my dad's S550 this week-end and the wheel barrels have never been cleaned...it's a bit over 2 years old and has about 20,000 miles on it. Can P21S Gel brake up and remove all that caked-on brake dust? I have a "non-acid" (manufacturer's claim) wheel cleaner that I think can definitely do the job at full strength, but using it is hard to tolerate since cleaning a car is supposed to be enjoyable! I'd rather use the Gel, but at the same time it's very costly and I don't want to waste so much product when it's not going to get the job done.
Somebody please advise.
Thanks,
Emile
