Looking for a wheel cleaner?

**KiaTia** · 06-03-2015, 06:03 PM

Ok from this forum I finally found a couple of good tire dressing now I need a wheel cleaner. I have one car with painted wheels the other chrome factory GM. Right now I am using Turtle Wax wheel & tire cleaner there has to be better..

Thanks

Hello and welcome. This works very well.

SONAX Wheel Cleaner, all wheel cleaner, chrome wheel cleaner, aluminum wheel cleaner, full effect wheel cleaner

Sonax is good stuff but I personally am not paying $15.99 for 16oz of wheel cleaner. No way. I bought Mothers on bogo here a few months ago and loaded up, it works just fine.

SONAX is pretty good stuff. Also like cg Diablo and eagle one a2z

Any of the pH neutral color changing wheel cleaners are going to be a step up from TW. Griots heavy duty and meguiars dub are both on the lower cost end of the type of cleaner. The latest sonax revision really at the top of the food chain. None of these cleaners are cheap.

I buy the Sonax full effect in 5L containers. Awesome stuff.

Honestly, I'm going to give you some advice most people here probably won't give you. But it's the easiest way to go about this.

First, I'm guessing you have dirty wheels. Dirty wheels = high dust brake pads. Change your brake pads to ceramic pads. No more dust issues. This is cheap and easy to do.

Second, coat your wheels with some spray type coating: Permanon / Hydro2

Third, buy some quality wheel cleaning tools from AG.

Fourth, clean your wheels with car wash soap.

....Either that, or be prepared to buy bottles of wheel cleaner for like fifteen bucks each and be prepared to buy a lot of them and spend a lot of time cleaning wheels.

Meg's DUB wheel cleaner, off the shelf. Just as good as Sonax FE, IMO.
