    A few questions.

    What foaming sprayer is that?

    Did you notice the brake rotors changing much color?

    How did it compare to other wheel cleaners like Sonax FE/Poorboys Spray and Rinse?

    Thanks and nice review!

    The foaming sprayer is from Megs OTC All Wheel and Tire bottle.

    Yes a little change but this goes away once you drive the car.

    I have used Sonax FE and did like it, but it is too expensive and I feel that Megs does just as good a job plus it cleans the tires very well too. I haven't used Poorboys.

    Thanks for the review. Does this leave your tire brush clean after rinsing the brush?

    Tires look pretty clean. Would be interested if you hit with a different tire cleaner such as opc to see if anything would happen. Wheels look good

    You need to hose it out, but I always hose all my brushes after use.

    I don't have OPC, but use to use Meg's APC+ at heavy duty dilution and I like wheel and tire cleaner better. On really dirty tires the foam turns brown as it slides down the tires.

    That wheel and tire looked really clean before. You should test it out on something neglected.
