[s2k2489]

Hey guys and gals. what do you all use to clean the wheels wells and get that nice clean black look. I find this very difficult. Thanks in advance.Pp

I see you've got three posts under your belt, so welcome to the forum. There are a variety of tire cleaner/dressing that Autogeek sells:

As far as a tire cleaner and wheel wells, I recommend Optimum Power Clean:
Optimum Power Clean All Purpose Cleaner 17 oz. New & Improved! (http://www.autogeek.net/optimum-power-clean-apc.html)

For tire dressings:
Tire Dressings, rubber protectants, tire shine (http://www.autogeek.net/tire-dressings-protectants.html)

Some that I recommend are:
Tire Dressings, rubber protectants, tire shine (http://www.autogeek.net/tire-dressings-protectants.html)

Wolfgang Black Diamond Tire Gel this thick gel penetrates beneath the surface to give your tires a long-lasting true glow! (http://www.autogeek.net/wg4700.html)

You'll have to take a look around the store and find out which one you like the best. If you don't want to commit to a certain dressing, AG has some free samples with every order, of the tire dressing mentioned above.

For wheel wells, you can use your favorite tire cleaner or APC followed up with something like CG Barebones or Griot's Undercarriage Spray.

Yeah my bad...I went back and edited my response. I use the Optimum Power clean and a MF wash mit. Works pretty good. I think Mothers has a wheel well brush...let me see if I can find it.

Mothers Fender Well Brush cleans wheel wells beneath the car's fenders. Fender Well Brush has a long handle to scrub behind wheels and tires. (http://www.autogeek.net/mothers-fender-well-brush.html)

OPC and a wheel well brush. Then dress with 303 aerospace or something similar.

A spray of APC followed with a stiff brush will work fine but a pressure washer makes it so much easier. Even a cheap 1600psi model will clean them remarkably well. I have taken to spraying an acrylic dressing on them after cleaning and they are much easier to keep clean afterwards.

OPC
Megs Super Degreaser
APC

All of the above work well

Dress with Duragloss 265

I use simple green and an old bug sponge. Then I use a cheap foaming tire spray (Costco) Comes in 4 packs.

This is done prior to the wash, so the tires and wheel wells get the foam. Wash the car, and dress the tires after.

I use a degreaser, and undercarriage spray.

I use CD2 engine detailer for the wheel wells. It works pretty good. I hate the gray look of the wheel wells after the tires are nice and deep black

This is what I use.

Wheels - Meguiar's Wheel Brightener

Tires - Amazing roll Off

Both of these are quality products however the Amazing Roll Off is obscenely expensive and can be replaced with a product that performs equally as well for less than half the price. Meguiar's Super Degreaser or Optimum Power Clean :props:

Tire Dressing - Ultima Tire & Trim Guard plus

Awesome. Thanks for the help.
