Re: SON1C Synopsis 13 Sonax Wheel Cleaner vs Chemical Guys Diablo GEL Orange
What vehicle was that rim from? Re try this test on badly soiled audi rims, i bet you'll like the sonax more!
This is really a cleaner you should set aside for very tough jobs. Or else its horribly expensive as a cleaner to be part of your regular routine.

Not a fan of Sonax wheel cleaner either. I like the fact it is Eco-friendly, but it is not worth the price for the performance.
I use Meg's all wheel and tire and Meg's WB. I have tried many others but keep going back to these 2. I might try OPC next on wheels and tires.

Re: SON1C Synopsis 13 Sonax Wheel Cleaner vs Chemical Guys Diablo GEL Orange
I've changed my thoughts some since writing this, as it has worked well for me on soiled BMW wheels, but at the price I just can't enjoy it
Those are my mustangs wheels
I agree! I was also frustrated that I was led on to believe it was spray on dwell and rinse off, as its not at all, still require a lot of agitation , and I can't stand the smell! Lol
So it's an okay product, I still have a bottle for the next set of trashed wheels I get hired for I have a client next week I might try it on actually? If so ill post updated thoughts

Can you compare Meg's all wheel and tire to mothers foaming wheel and tire?

Re: SON1C Synopsis 13 Sonax Wheel Cleaner vs Chemical Guys Diablo GEL Orange
I am with you guys. I quickly learned that for an everyday wheel cleaner, it is just overkill (in terms of cost per use vs cleaning power on well maintained wheels). I am sure it works great on neglected wheels with caked on brake dust, but I normally don't allow my wheels to get to that condition, so really, overkill for me IMO. I need something a little more cost effective
Edit: Sorry, I was referring to Sonax.

Never used Mothers Foaming wheel and tire. I pick up the Meg's at Walmart for 3.99 when on sale. All I can say is it foams well, tires come out super clean and so do the wheels.
Here is a recent example of an AGO member using Meg's AWT on a detail.

Not a Sonax Full Effect fan here either. I find that numerous other wheel cleaners get the job done quicker, and more effective at a better price point. Just my $.02

I love Sonax but only for very dirty wheels works best for me. I do agree it is kinda pricey. For wheels that aren't very dirty I just use Adam's APC works very well I'm wheels.
