    Default Strong Wheel Cleaner Needed ASAP

    Hey, just wondering what you guys/gals would use to clean some very resistent grime on some wheels. The wheels are painted so I don't think I can use the orange stuff.

    Any input is greatly apprichated

    Oh yeah, and just purchased the Meguaires Hot Rims (didn't work)

    Go to the harley dealership and get P21S wheel cleaner, it's not acidic so it will be gentler on your wheels but should get rid of the brake dust, grime, etc. Once you've cleaned them use a sealant or at least a wax to help keep them cleaner easier.

    And yours wheels will have a clearcoat on them, so you should treat them accordingly. I don't know what you mean by 'orange stuff'.

    Ive noticed for some road grime , no cleaner really gets it off and the best thing is to do some manual labor and use something like a old toothbrush to get that grime out of all hard to reach parts of the rim.

    SimpleGreen - the brown stuff dripped off my tires and wheels as soon as I sprayed it on.

    pH 9.35.

    They have a specific foaming wheel cleaner, but I just use the engine degreaser spray bottle and it works well.

    I just used Simple green pro series rim cleaner last night on my caked rims. It removed the awful ceramic dust pretty easily and only cost 8.99.
