DO NOT use dawn dish soap unless your car isn't really that expensive. Dawn strips car wax especially on the wheels. It doesn't remove iron fallout/brake dust the best than Meguiars All Wheel Cleaner. ALWAYS use the right chemicals for a specfic job. Dawn is only great for a strip wash to prep the paint to put any protective coating like wax, ceramic coating, paint sealant after.

I had better results, I used a pressure sprayer to pre-rinse and the idea to pre-rinse first is to get the top layer off dirt and grim first so that the chemical can get to the hard stains and dissolve them off easier i see better results this way , then spray hot rims and let saturate for 1min, its like an oven cleaner you can see all the brown just melting off it took off brown rust like stains i had for over 20 years on a 1999 ford expedition, my rims look new. I couldn't believe how easy it was.i wish i could show you before an after pictures.

I would stay away from wheel waxes or protectants unless you want to ceramic coat your wheels. if you use a spray wax you risk getting it on your brake pads and rotors which will affect breaking. Just my opinion.

Question josh, I went into my local detail supplier looking for iron remover, they sold me aluminum brightener, their brand of course. Is aluminum brightener Similar to iron remover? Paint safe? Thanks
@imjoshv Жыл бұрын
Aluminum brightener is usually used as a wheel cleaner for certain types of wheels. Iron removers are designed to dissolve embedded iron deposits and usually have the color change effect or bleeding when its working. Aluminum Brighteners are also usually acid based as well and will have ph in the under 7 range. They may be some applications for paint (like possibly removing calcium deposits and water spots) but i wouldnt use it like an iron remover. You definitely want to be careful
@derrickabare9986 Жыл бұрын
I have a buddy that is a distributor for carbrite and advanced detailing products. I asked him about iron remover as I use tw and was looking for something in not only bulk size but also more economical. He told me to try acid wheel cleaner at 10 to 1 or so . Rinse down , spray and use a mesh bug sponge. Rinse agian really good . Works great . Very little clay bar needed after . Very cost effective and doesn't hurt the paint.
