    Re: Cleaning plastidip?

    I dip my wheels in the winter to protect my finish. I usually spray them with the coin-op pressure washer, not too close as to rip the dip off. I then take an old microfiber towel and wipe with my rinseless wash solution. If It is really bad I'll use some APC and gently wipe the grime off. So far I have not had any issues. The biggest thing you can do it 5 good layers of the dip to offer a strong protection.

    I have used several wheel cleaners/apc with my dipped wheels with good results. Just be a little less vigorous with your wash/brush technique and you will be good to go.
