Cleaning Black Wheels in a SSS 2019.

[The Doctor detailer]

Having black wheels ................ well it´s a challenge to keep them clean.

This are the dirty wheels of my Suzuki Swift Sport 2019.

I want to show the process I use for cleaning them.




I use some products from the Meguiars Detailer Line.



I use the following products:


D101 Meguiar's All Purpose Cleaner.
D108 Meguiar's Super Degreaser.
D1801 Meguiar's Wheel & Paint Iron DECON.
D140 Meguiar's wheel Brightener.
D170 Meguiar's Hyper Dressing.
G7516 Meguiar's Endurance Tire Gel, G15415 Meguiar's Endurance Tire Dressing (Aerosol).

First I use the pressure washer to remove all the dirt possible. This time I only used Wheel Brightener, no need for the iron remover this time.



I use different types of brushes for the wheel spokes, arches and tires. I even use and old toothbrush



You can clean the wheel arches with Superdegraser or All Purpose cleaner depending on the dirt you have. Agitate the product with a good brush. This is important preparation for the plastic protectant.



I use the Speed Master wheel brush for cleaning the inside of the wheel and is very handy for tight spaces.



I use All purpose cleaner for the tire when it´s not very dirty. Agitate with a stiff bristle brush until you see white foam.



For the wheel arches I use Hyper dressing diluted 4:1 for the "like new" look.



Now the wheel arches are clean but they don´t look black. They need dressing to complete the effect and look like new.



Apply deliberately and distribute with a foam applicator if needed.



Looks better.



Now to dry the wheel with a waffle weave microfiber. And to remove any overspray.




like shiny tires so I used Endurance Tire Spray. This version doesn't exist anymore. Distribute the product with a tire foam applicator.



Nearly finished. 3 more to go.



BEFORE



AFTER



Final result with a coat of Ultimate wax. This is very important because it will make subsequent cleaning easier.

Freaking amazing before and after.

Thanks for sharing!

Awesome job.

May suggest I a touchless Sio2 sealant for easier “waxing” and better
self cleaning with durability better than a typical wax or sealant.

Here’s one version. A few companies make this type of product now.

BLACKFIRE HydroSeal Concentrate 8 oz.

Thanks Mike. This is my first post since my times at MOL in 2008.

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I need something that is sprayed on the wheels for time saving.
