Below are some tips for keeping your wheels clean and in good condition:

• Cleaning your wheels is important, especially for polished, glossy, or chrome finishes. If not properly cleaned, heat from the sun or your vehicle’s brakes can eventually bake contaminants into your wheels, making it difficult or impossible to clean them.
• Treat your wheels as you would treat your vehicle’s paint. Clean each one of them using a mild soap with water and a soft sponge or cloth to gently scrub away dirt and brake dust. Rinse immediately with clean water and dry with a soft cloth to avoid dried soap or water spots. If desired, apply a wax to to help repel water and contaminants.
• Avoid automatic car-washes; the finish on your wheels could be damaged by rough brushes, metal guide rails, or pressure washing.

How to wash your wheels and tires with a Wheel Cleaner detailing product:

• Spray on the cleaner of your choice and let it dwell on the metal wheels and rubber tires. Check the cleaner instructions to see how long the manufacturer recommends the cleaner sit on the wheel surface.
• After the cleaner dwells, use your cleaning brushes to scrub the surface of the wheel and tire.
• Your brushes will work better when they’re wet. Wet your brushes in a bucket of water and auto shampoo.
• Start with the inside of the wheel: scrub the inner barrel of the wheel, the wheel hub and brake caliper first before moving to the spokes and outer surfaces.
• After scrubbing, rinse the wheel well with a pressure washer and clean water.
• Dry with an air dryer (or a microfiber cloth) for a spotless finish.
• Apply tire dressing for the ultimate finished look and to protect the tires from UV rays.
