So for over a year I have been relegated to rinseless washing. I think this is better than waterless. I like it because it feels like a regular wash.
I was reading about the wheel cleaning that Nick just wrote and I was wondering how I could better clean my wheels using the rinseless wash.
I use old microfiber I soaked in the wash , I was wondering if the brushes used in Nick's review would still be useful to me. I am also looking for any suggestions on using rinseless wash on wheels. I believe both cars I have are clear coated nothing exotic.
Thanks guys.

Luckily, the spokes on my wheels allows enough clearance for me to stick my hand in there so I generally do not use brush.

If bad, I spray with wheel cleaner, use my daytona brush and then rinse with the rinseless solution and MF towel. Dry with another MF

For sure.

Dip brush in Rinseless Wash Solution then agitate wheel cleaner, (if used), then wipe dry. I love those brushes, you will too.

I use waterless and rinseless washes all the time to wash wheels and then just hand dry with a dedicated black microfiber towel.

It's far from a perfect way to get a wheel clean but sometimes you do what you have to do to get the job done.

If my wheels aren't terribly dirty I will use my black wheel/tire MF's and do them at the end with the leftover rinseless solution (Garry Dean method).

The perfect tire cleaning product is Mothers Back to Black Tire Renew but works perfectly in any wash process - less scrub, more clean.

Sort of a different type of product, but I wonder if the product you reviewed is as good as their all wheel cleaner that is awesome?

I have used both and they sure behave similarly but have not tried the tire product on wheels. The wheel and tire cleans as well. The wheel and tire mentions rinsing with water but that may be to protect the wheels and less about the tires.

On my vehicles, I do not use wheel cleaners every wash (keep them fairly clean and protected) so my interest is tire cleaning.

I like the fact i can do the tires at the very end of the wash just before I dress them and use soap on everything else (wheels, wells).
