Re: cleaning inside of wheel
Would be interesting to know what product the other guys was using. As for me, I have my new P21 Gel in the mail.

I doubt he'd know what it was, but I'll try and find out. I was really expecting the P21 gel to knock it out. Maybe I just didn't leave it on/agitate it enough ???

Re: cleaning inside of wheel
Like Ive posted a number of times, P21s gel is not a very strong wheel cleaner, very safe, but not very strong. I might even go as far as to say its overrated and overpriced. There are many other wheel cleaners out there that are just as safe and less expensive.
I would try some 3M adhesive remover or Stoners Tarminator.

Try letting the P21S dwell for quite awhile then agitate again. Usually two apps like this will handle some bad ones. If not try DP Cleanse All followed by P21S.

Re: cleaning inside of wheel
Thanks for the replies. I've read the comments on the safety/ineffectiveness of the P21 spray/gel on certain applications, I just didn't know how effective it would be on this type of damage, i.e. try it again, let it soak, etc. I'll try ya'lls (yes, I said ya'lls ) suggestions.

D&D, I would be curious to know what wheel cleaners you're referring to. I have the P21S gel on order for my Mercedes C350 AMG wheels. I agree that stuff is expensive. However, I had some pitting issues on my last car and I dont want to risk damaging my new wheels which is why I ordered P21S. I am open to suggestions.

Use P21S Polishing Soap on the aluminum barrels. The coat with something like Klasse AIO or Poorboys Wheel Sealant.
