hello all,
I'm looking for some suggestions.
I'm maintaining two sets of VERY expensive custom wheels on my friends vehicles, and then I will be sending them off with the products/chemicals to maintain on there own.
On both of these sets of wheels I do not want any damage. one set is powdercoated and one set is polished aluminum. For the powder coated wheel I would like to treat it as if was as delicate as the polished wheel.
For the tires I have been spraying an APC on a towel to clean them and avoiding the wheels completely. This works for now because there is new rubber on the wheels.
I'm looking to buy an APC for cleaning tires that is for sure polished aluminum safe. One that will not dull polished aluminum. I know this is a very demanding question as there are not many that will do so while being effective. I know P21S TAW is safe, but its really not that effective on tires IME.
Does anyone know if there is an APC that is effective and also safe on polished aluminum ? If it has to be diluted thats fine, but I dont want something that is diluted so much that it hardly works.
any suggestions ?
I was thinking OPC, and plan to email them after hearing some suggestions from the forum.
thanks.
