As per Meguiar's, the ULTIMATE is PH balanced and will not hurt painted brake parts (zinc coated rotors, painted brake calipers, and etc). As for the other cleaner, it suggested that you remove the wheel/tire. There is your $5 difference.
@nadirkhan75523 жыл бұрын
So for the Ultimate you can use it as an iron remover on the paint as it's safe but not the hot wheels right
@praneetsingh62014 жыл бұрын
Hot rims is a iron remover (acid based as it dissolves iron ) the purple colour changing is a gimmick in ultimate Phenanthroline is the ingredient to change colour but that’s all it does not dissolve iron
@huntertorno90622 жыл бұрын
i actually use both, idk i just always have. I start witht the black bottle and spray it on the wheels and tire when dry then scrub with a brush then pressure wash them, after that I follow up with the washing of the car and spray the wheels with the foam canon and after i rinse i spray the purple bottle and scrub one last time then rinsing, drying and tire shine.

The price difference where I live is 7 dollars. I went with the purple one because like you said it works just as well and more cost efficient.

That's not how you use the wheel cleaner..... You spray it all over on dry wheels until it turns purple (taking the dirt/rust off) and then you wash it off with a hose... And dry the wheels with a microfiber cloth to get rid of the rest of the dirt.
