Re: What do you do to make your Wheel Cleaning Easier
Wheels tend to take the longest part of the whole wash for me. I'm obsessed with cleaning the barrels and this takes the most time per wheel. Thank God for low dust brakes on one vehicle I wash. Washing its wheels is a breeze.

Re: What do you do to make your Wheel Cleaning Easier
When I owned German cars, it was a lot harder because I was having to go after brake dust in all of the recessed lug nut areas. That was a pain and the only way to get it perfect was to remove the wheel.

Re: What do you do to make your Wheel Cleaning Easier
If I want the barrels spotless I have to put the car on my lift and clean wipe from the underside

Re: What do you do to make your Wheel Cleaning Easier
I don't have a benchmark - usage time enough on this ....but BH Touchless or even Auto Foam.....at some point, that high PH will start making a dent in whatever LSP is on the wheel - unless one prescribes to spray and seal, in which sealing it back up is not a issue. (The thought has crossed my mind to try it to see if it removes not the road film but the soft pad film....)
I love that it is fairly touchless but that high PH comes with a price on the LSP

Do you use a pressure washer?

No, I never let them get that dirty that I need to use one
