Wheel Cleaner 2-Pack - Tough Wheel Cleaning Spray for Car Wash | Rim Cleaner & Brake Dust Remover | Safe On Chrome Clear Coated & Plasti Dipped Wheels | Use w/Wheel Brush

Brake buster is purple dish soap, this is the strongest and none corrosive wheel cleaner! Awesome product who worth $55. I will order it again when I need more.

I have used this on my 2024 Cayenne wheels for 18 months with good results. However, just for grins, today I tried Dawn dish soap in a bucket of warm water with my usual brush and was pleasantly surprised to see that it worked just as well. Because the Cayenne does not have the ceramic brakes, after several weeks it looks like the brilliant bright surface has been spraypainted black and Dawn and Adams takes it off Lickety split with no apparent damage to the wheel surface. As a caution, some wheels may not do as well with either of these.

I used Adams wheel cleaner on my BMW 328. If anyone is familiar with BMW, their OEM brake pads kick off a ton of dust and rims don't take long to look dark and dirty. . For years I have neglected the wheels on my car and let the brake dust accumulate. The front wheels suffering the most as they are responsible for the majority of the stopping force. I finally decided to get a professional wheel cleaner and settled on Adams because of their positive reviews and seemingly high regard among pros. I cleaned my wheels pretty thoroughly before using Adam's Wheel Cleaner because they were really bad but afterward I realized I didn't even have to. I sprayed it on straight from the bottle, no dilution, and as soon as the color started to change to a deep purple I grabbed my wheel brush and whoolie and went to town all over including all the way to the back of the drums. It foams up really well and gives off a very strong odor which I can honestly describe as a berry candy smell. It was not bad or suffocating, but I was outside which i would recommend. I did wear gloves while handling the cleaner as anything that dissolves metals is probably best not to have all over your skin. A quick rinse and dry with some microfiber towels and I can say my wheels haven't shone like this in years. My only negative takeaway was that I used almost half the bottle on my first use and for ~$14/bottle I will not be doing this very often. I wonder if I can dilute it but there were no instructions suggesting that. I will certainly be using this product again when my wheels need the love but in the meantime I will try and keep them this clean for as long as I can.

I have previously used Sonax, Chemical Guys Diablo Gel, Eagle One, and a few foaming cleaner sprays. Out of all of them, I like this one the best. My car is a Mercedes-Benz with AMG sport package and while the brakes are fantastic at stopping the car, they generate a lot of dust, so that was my main focus. I sprayed this product on my wheels, scrubbed them with a wheel brush, and rinsed them with a pressure washer. I did not spend a ton of time because my wheels are not in great shape to begin with but as you can see, this removed a considerable amount of brake dust. It is more of a gel than a liquid which is good and bad. The downside of a gel is that you wind up using more product each clean. Like Sonax, it turns purple as it works but it has less of the foul odor. It's not as pleasant of a scent as Diablo Gel but it seems to be stronger on brake dust. I paid $15 for a 16oz bottle which is a little more expensive than comparable products but sometimes you get what you pay for. Everyone wants a product that you can simply spray on and rinse off and have beautiful results. In my experience, such a product does not exist. If you want clean wheels, you need to spend some time with a good cleaner, a wheel brush, and rag.

This stuff works great!

Alright, this stuff is EXPENSIVE and you'll use at least 1/3 the bottle on one wash. So in other words, this bottle will last 3 uses. However, I didn't really appreciate it until my third wash which I just had this weekend. Being winter, I find less time to wash my car. I really only have the weekends to choose from so I'm crossing my fingers for a warmish day (40-50deg) and hopefully with some overcast skies. Anyways, it has been awhile and with BMW brakes, the dust was there. My wheels looked like they were charcoal. Anyways, I rinsed them down (with a normal hose, not pressure washer unfortunately) which got some of the surface layer grime off. Sprayed them on liberally, agitating with a rim cleaning brush and a thicker bristle brush. Let it set for a few minutes and rinsed. HOLY SH*T! I was speechless. This thing really works when the rims are the dirtiest. The first two times I used it, my wheels weren't that dirty. But when you see it work on a brake dust caked wheel, you'll become a believer. The wheels were SO clean it looked like I took it off the car and polished the inside of them as well. It really got everything. I usually would come up afterwards with some detail spray and microfiber to hand clean the smaller nooks, but not this time. Not this time. My recommendation is fine a less heftier wheel cleaner for the not-so-dirty days so you aren't breaking your wallet. Reserve this for the dirty washes. I hear Griots is pretty good for the not-as-serious brake dust washes so I'm going to explore their product line a bit. This cleaner is going to make me poor.

It’s very good

Even better than the old Adams wheel cleaner.
