    Re: Daily drivers and wheel cleaner

    I use CG Diablo Gel 4:1 for routine cleanings since they are never too dirty. Works well and is cheap.

    Re: Daily drivers and wheel cleaner

    BTW I use Wolfgang Uber Wheel Cleaner for neglected wheels. Works pretty well and I suppose it is pretty similar to Sonax Full Effect.

    Re: Daily drivers and wheel cleaner

    In the past year, two German vehicles entered the household DD fleet, so I had to spend some AGO research time on wheel maintenance. Currently, I'm doing Iron-X soap followed by Collinite 845 or 476. I get 3-4 months of DD usage with just ONR washings before it's time for a re-do.

    Re: Daily drivers and wheel cleaner

    For my DD, I've been using Opti's Power Clean at 3:1 and a few selected brushes. On the rare occasions I have any time, I will coat with either a wax or OS on the wheels.

    If you use a sealant on them, you can just mix up some car shampoo and water in a bottle, use a foaming sprayer, and that should be effective enough.

    Royal Brown is good stuff but strong. Don't breathe the stuff. I don't use it every time but if I have wheels or barrels that are difficult, I will go to the BR.

    Whats weird is that the Wolfgang says it will change color/bleed but it has never changed color for me. Not sure what to think. Looking at other peoples reviews it seem to bleed for them? Maybe I forgot to shake it or wheel were just not too bad.
