User questions & answers

Question:	Can this be used on chrome wheels
Answer:	Info on back of bottle says can be used on chrome.
Question:	Can I use this on powder coated wheels
Answer:	I see no reason why you wouldn’t be able to use it on powder coated wheels. It’s not as strong as other wheel cleaners on the market. You will have to manually clean the wheels after spraying. Don’t expect it to be a spray on spray off product alone.
Question:	Is it Acid Free ? What are the ingredients
Answer:	Contact the owner, Kurt Maxwell, at [email protected], or call him at 818-585-8161. The only ingredient noted on the label is Citrus Oils.
Question:	Can this wheel cleaner be used on honda street motorcycles

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this be used for carbon ceramic break
Answer:	Defiantly Not!!!
Question:	Can this product be used on after market machined rims with black accent ,(not sure if its matte black or coated )they are by brand andros
Answer:	This product is so ineffective that I wouldn't use it on my lawnmower's wheels, let alone after market machined rims with black accent. Save your money on this product and go with Sonax instead.
Question:	I need a good product to clean the tires only. is there any? they all say "wheels" which is confusing
Answer:	To clean tires, I generally use Black Magic Bleche-Wite Tire Cleaner (800002222) and top it off with Black Magic Tire Wet or Meguiar's G7516 Endurance Tire Gel. Wheel cleaners like this are designed to clean the rims (remove brake dust build up, road grime, etc from metal rims - some alloy, some painted, some chrome, etc)
Question:	Will this work on black rims and machine gun metal
Answer:	Yes as long as the rims have a clearcoat painted over the black and the paint is not breaking down. besides that this is the BEST wheel cleaner and general grease/grime cleaner on the market as I have used it for its wheel cleaning purpose but it is great at degreasing engine blocks and I even had a oil covered hood a few weeks ago and it cut right through it with 2 minutes of waiting it is an incredible product!

User questions & answers

Question:	The product description does not mention if this is safe for factory chrome. Can someone advise whether it is safe or should I use another cleaner
Answer:	Never tried it but it doesnt hurt clear.
Question:	Are the SDS sheets available
Answer:	I have used it on my black & chrome Mercedes Benz rims with no problem. It is expensive so I'd recommend you to try a microfiber cloth (you can get a big pack at Home Depot for a reasonable price) with some soapy water first.
Question:	Has anyone used this with the M sport blue painted calipers? Any negative effects on caliper paint
Answer:	There is an assortment of grits. I also use them to polish brass and copper bottom pots.
Question:	Is this wheel clearer good for 21” black oem rims
Answer:	Yes it does. This a good tool for contours. Buy more than you need, because they wear down faster than you think.

Question:	Does it help remove small rust spots
Answer:	Car Guys is safe for ALL wheels. Sonax, no so much "*Use caution when applying this product to anodized wheels and brake systems" Oops! Sonax forgot what ALL means! Maybe Sonax is easier to use, but the folks with anodized wheels and brakes sure are hating life!
Question:	How does this product compare to Sonax
Answer:	This product is a fine polish. A good wash first and then if there is rust and grime you may be best very fine bronze wool, you could try steel wool 00000 0 but it will eventually haze theChrome. When that is clean then use polish. This is a premium metal polish

Question:	Is this safe to use on a ceramic coated vehicle
Answer:	Depends, but this will very likely have at least some impact on the coating so we do not recommend it if you are hoping to keep you coating in tact.
Question:	Has anyone used this on auto paint fallout? Saw on you tube the it does to get fallout out o paint
Answer:	Late - but as a mobile detailer you don't want to use this on paint. Yes, it works. But from an economical standpoint you are going to go through an entire bottle to cover the paint as this stuff is very thick and viscous in order to cling to wheels. Meguiars has a wheel and paint specific iron decon or you can use a product like gyeon quartz.

The Ultimate Wheel Cleaner - SONAX Full Effect Wheel Cleaner - Precision Wheel Cleaner for safe and effective removal of brake dust and stubborn dirt SONAX Full Effect Wheel Cleaner is a highly effective, acid-free and pH balanced rim and wheel cleaner that is safe for all wheels, including aluminum and alloys. This formulation is also effective and safe for use on painted wheels and will not deteriorate clear coats. SONAX Full Effect Wheel Cleaner contains unique chemical ingredients that effectively dissolves the sintered iron by forming a water soluble iron complex. During the use of your vehicle, brake dust and road grime become sintered to the surface of rims and wheels due to the high temperature conditions theyare normally exposed. Brake dust contains high levels of iron and once sintered to the rim, becomes extremely difficult to dissolve or remove without the use of harsh chemicals. SONAX Full Effect Wheel Cleanersprays on as a thick, flourescent green foam. As the cleansing foam begins to work into the dirt and grime, the formula begins to turn red. The red coloration is the SONAX Wheel Cleaner forming a bond to the sintered iron on the wheel and changing its state to a water soluble complex for easy removal. Stubborn, baked on grime may take a small amount of agitation. Rinse wheels thoroughly with a power washer and wipe dry. Directions Directions for Use: Turn nozzle to spray position For best results, spray onto dry (pre-rinsed), cool wheels Spray evenly onto all wheel surfaces (Cleaner will spray on fluorescent green) Depending upon soil level, allow to stand 3 to 5 minutes. Cleaner turns red upon contact with sintered iron particles. This is a normal reaction. Use a brush for extremely stubborn dirt Rinse wheels thoroughly with a sharp stream of water from hose or pressure washer

User questions & answers

Question:	Can I use this on plastic dip rims
Answer:	Imho, the power washer probably is doing most of the cleaning. I used this on my motorcycle wheels, my aftermarket wheels on my Toyota Tacoma, oem wheels on my girl's Audi SUV and none of them came clean when following the instructions and a garden hose. Simple green works as good or better and it is better for the environment and hoses off easily.
Question:	Video shows them rinsing with a power washer... Is that whats doing most of the cleaning? Can you rinse with a spray nozzle on a garden hose to ger re
Answer:	I have used this product to remove BMW brake dust, which, as you likely know, can be black, thick and gritty. You spray this stuff on (I have a BMW 325xi), it turns color in about 5-7 minutes. Then give it a gentle brushing with a nylon-bristle brush, and hose it off. Done. The other wheel cleaners I have tried are a joke compare to this stuff, but it's relatively expensive. I can't tell you whether it would remove rust, although I doubt it.
Question:	Can you spray this onto a BMW 328i's wheel hubs to remove rust? I would, of course us a brush to actually scrub residue off... but is it safe
Answer:	In my experience, not many. I have 22" wheels and one bottle can do maybe 8 wheel treatments. So, for 16-17", maybe 12 treatments? Stuff is expensive but it works like magic & worth the cost.
Question:	how many wheels can 1 bottle treat? (assuming moderately-dirty 16" or 17" wheels
Answer:	It is not recommended. This is a spray-on hose-off wheel cleaner formulated to remove brake dust. For chrome plated bumpers and other plated metals, try our California Gold Chrome Polish.

Question:	Can i use a harley sportster wire wheel? 2018 1200 custom. thanks
Answer:	That doesn't depend on the characteristics of this cleaner, but rather on the wheel materials, finish, and the roughness of the brush. That said, this wheel cleaner is not great, not much better than soap and water.

It's The Ultimate Wheel Cleaning Formula

Adam's Wheel Cleaner is extremely effective in removing stubborn brake dust and metallic contamination from your wheels. This thicker, more viscous formula clings to wheel surfaces and allows the European-derived formula to melt away the stubborn brake dust commonly left behind by many of today's high-performance braking systems.

Safe On Most Finishes

This product dissolves metallic brake contamination on contact, and although incredibly effective, still remains pH neutral!

Adam's Wheel Cleaner is safe on factory clear coated, factory powder coated, factory painted wheels & high-performance brakes.

Tough On Brake Dust & Metallic Contamination

With active cleaning agents and advanced surfactants, this formula is perfect for cleaning away the worst, most baked-on brake dust commonly found in the barrel of your wheels. Simply spray on, allow the cleaner to activate, and then agitate using a wheel brush or wheel woolie.

Why Does It Change Color?

Adam’s Wheel Cleaner is the ultimate product for removing metallic contamination from your wheels. This thicker, more viscous formula clings to your wheel surfaces, allowing it to dissolve the harsh brake contamination for an easy rinse and streak-free finish. Equipped with a unique raw material that targets surfactants and the color-changing formula that targets brake dust, Adam’s Wheel Cleaner lets you know its active and working by turning to a deep purple.

NOTE:

Adam's Wheel Cleaner, as with any wheel cleaner, should never be sprayed onto a hot surface. Always allow wheels to completely cool before cleaning. USE COMMON SENSE: If you will be using Wheel Cleaner for the first time on your wheels be sure to test a small area first to check for any unusual or unexpected results. The active ingredient in Adam's Wheel Cleaner does produce a slight odor as its working. This is normal and will quickly dissipate.

It is also important to note that Adam's wheel cleaner may not be safe on anodized raw aluminum, polished aluminum wheels, and aftermarket bare metallic wheels. If you are not sure, send us a message or try our Eco Wheel Cleaner!

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you use brushes etc to clean wheels with Mothers or is it supposed to be used without agitation
Answer:	Not sure but I wouldnt think anything like this is safe for plasti dipped anything
Question:	Is it safe for plasti dipped wheels
Answer:	I have and it works pretty good!
Question:	anyone use it on alloy wheels
Answer:	You could probably do 2-3 passes on your vehicle. I have large 17" wheels on my dually using large off road Nitto tires, and used about 1/2 the bottle on the first pass, however mine were very dirty, and had not been cleaned in 2 years so I went a bit heavy on the amount sprayed.
Question:	How many tires (just the tires) could this 24 oz bottle clean with one pass per tire? I have 17-inch tires
Answer:	Signature Series Wheel Cleaner is a citrus-based wheel cleaner. If you would like to achieve a much milder clean then we recommend diluting it up to a 4:1 ratio.
