Matt I would have done an agitation - non agitation split passenger / driver side instead of front back since front wheels as you know gather more brake dust build-up. left right split would have shown how much difference agitation makes to the whole process. One more thing i noticed Matt, I use Maguires, it says use on DRY wheels, you rinsed the wheels first meaning that Maguires didnt get to work on the grime directly but floated on the water already on the wheels also it prevented the cleaner being absorbed by the grime as it was already saturated by water.
How would you recommend cleaning painted rims with Meguires? Just spray while dry then agitate with brush or microfiber mitt? I'm worried it'll just scratch the black paint up with all the gunk it's breaking down.
I actually prefer redline. Ive not had much fun with the meguiars. Ive not used magma yet though ill give it a go. I used another brand from Halfords it turned green, couldnt be buying that again. Im a bluenose 😂😂
I wish we had the Autoglym cleaner in the Spray Can, I'm curious about that...(Canada only has a few Products)...hope we get their Ceramic stuff soon too...
So Thoughts before watching the vid - AG Magma is not a specific wheel cleaner. Wonder wheels is acid based, unless they changed the formula. not something I personally want on my alloys on a regular basis. TW redline is good but trigger sprayer is not great, but great on price. Meguiars is too pricey for me, for what they do. BH autowheels is my main wheel cleaner, but Simoniz ultra care alloy cleaner is pretty good as well for the price.
Hi Mat, great review on these wheel cleaning products,Ive only used one and that's Wonder Wheels,I didn't do the job for me.never tried the rest but I do like the Meguiars one.also Magma is another to look at as it can do the body work.
Useful video Matt , I've got some Turtlewax redline to try which I got for £6:99 from Eurocarparts. I've also tried the Sonax reactive one which is great .
The best fallout remover from Halfords is Auto finesse iron out. As soon as it comes in it's gone lol. Much more powerful than these. Lights up red quick 👍🏼.
Great video Matt, I've recently bought the Turtlewax Redline after using Wonder wheels for the last few years. Yet to use it but do you know if I can use the turtlewax as a fallout remover on the paintwork?
With reactive wheel cleaners, surely you are better to apply to a dry wheel??? I think Meguiar's recommends that - did you read any instructions? The jet washing technique was poor, missed a lot by just spraying downwards,. Covering brake discs with TGA is really a bad idea, it damages them and makes stopping the car a nightmare until it has cleaned off. Needs care on application and why the broad-spread spray heads are a pain. The cost per litre is vital, but so is the quantity required - you covered that pretty well.
Nice video as always 👍 I think most of the cleaners are not peoples first choice these days, as there are better products out there but handy to know if you happen to run out of your usual preferred brand.
I know what you're saying. But for those just starting to take care of their motors, they will no doubt start by looking in the supermarkets and the high street first. Plus, these are brands most people will have heard of.
@@AntEloftheHouseofEl oh I have don’t worry about that, Bilt is seriously strong stuff for sure but stinks so bad and was just saying out of these 4 meguiars would be my choice. I’m currently using either GT wheel shampoo or YUM wheels and both are great too
Tells this ive been buying the maguires wheel cleaner for ages as i know its good but its just so expensive and considering the turtle wax redline due to being able to buy it in 5liter drums would you recommend the swap 25quid for 5 liters redline vs maguries ultimate £20 a bottle usually normally lasts one wash tbh you reckon the turtle wax redline is safe enough to use ? thoughts swap or stay with maguires ?
Yes, it should be fine..... Also you wouldn't use every wash anyway. If I'm doubt, apply it, and spray a little shampoo or #snowfoam over the top before agitating
As others have said, Bilt Hamber is the best overall wheel cleaner I've used but great to see another comparison of high street products Mat. Tend to lose touch with what's available in Halfords etc. I remember buying the old Wonder Wheels where you had to tip into a plastic cap and use the brush supplied which would fall apart after a few uses lol! Nasty, acrid smelling stuff! 😷😄
Great video Mat. I've got the megs you used here at the moment. Question is, should I use the megs on the alloys and APC on the tyres? Does APC remove tyre dressing? Thanks in advance. Ashley
hi i dropped my grit guard accidentley on the ground would you suggest to change it? also do you think its best to have two microfiber wash mitts one for the top and another for the bottom ?
Wonder wheels is rubbish stained my alloys had to use wash and wax to get it off and plenty of water got some g101 going wash my wheels in that shoud be ok
Great video however, I think you have got the price wrong on the Turtle Wax Redline Wheel cleaner. £10 is for a 750ml bottle meaning a better price per litre me thinks.
