How good is the Chemical guys Diablo wheel and tire cleaner

[@joevanseeters2873]

Diablo is my go to wheel cleaner 98% of the time now. It's one of the safest (ph neutral) wheel cleaners and it is also one of the best smelling (cherry scent). What I love about it is that it is effective without stripping the wax or sealant off of your rims. I use a coat of Soft 99 Fusso Coat followed by a coat of Turtle Wax Seal & Shine 24 hours later or the next time I wash my vehicle to allow the Fusso Coat to cure for a period before topping it with the Seal & Shine. Both of the sealants are very affordable and you won't find a stronger combination of protection (except for a full blown wheel ceramic coating). The Fusso Coat topped with the Seal & Shine is the ultimate "one two punch" so to speak for giving you the best chemical resistance and durability. Then you only need the Diablo Wheel Cleaning Gel Concentrate (which you dilute 3:1) to maintain your wheels in pristine condition. The wax/sealant combo helps to reject brake dust, road grime, and road salts too making it easier to clean your rims. Very good combo. I stand clear of the super high or super low PH cleaners unless I am cleaning really trashed wheels. Otherwise you only need a ph neutral cleaner. The great thing about Diablo is it doesn't have that foul rotten egg smell of the iron removing wheel cleaners, although those do work incredibly well, especially on trashed wheels and they are usually ph neutral as well. I just hate that rotten egg smell and don't use the iron remover cleaners unless I am doing a full decontamination wash on the vehicle.

@joevanseeters2873 yea it def smells really good to be a wheel cleaner. I thought it worked pretty good i just didn't like the spray bottle. I like the ones that kinda mist it over so u waste less product. I need to wax my wheels more. I never do the black wheels but when I had chrome ones on my truck i did it a lot more.

[@TheHellcatEngineer]

alright ill try the meguires one. I need something good bc the hellcat puts off so much brake dust

[@sunsetRspec]

@@TheHellcatEngineer adams polishes makes a great wheel cleaner, you don't have to scrub it either

[@TheHellcatEngineer]

Ben does it just soak in and rinse off?? bc if so I need that badly lol

[@sunsetRspec]

@@TheHellcatEngineer i think the bottle recommends scrubbing, but i just let it sit for about 2 minutes and then spray it off with a pressure washer

[@TheHellcatEngineer]

@@sunsetRspec I gotcha. lol cleaning wheels is the most annoying part. so I def want the easiest thing
