A seized brake caliper meant this 20 year old wheel had been battered with heavy brake dust and iron fallout and while there was still some super-stubborn stuff left behind, Turtle Wax’s All Wheel Cleaner + Iron Remover did a great job at shifting the vast majority of it!

Yes I know there was still some stubborn crap left in the corners and yes I know you should at least rinse the wheel first to save wasting product but the caliper had seized so the battered old wheels were beyond a straight forward clean and it’s just a quick YT short not intended to be taken too seriously so try not to get your knickers in a twist!

@sheffcitys2forgedinsteel255 2 года назад

Just a quick question, if a lot of the cleaning products brake down brake bust if you leave it on, how come it doesn't break down your brake pads 🤔... And you can't say none of it gets onto the pabs

@_detailingamateur_9459 2 года назад

To avoid criticism why didn’t you just do the job properly like this video had intended to be?

@CarCleaningGuru 2 года назад

Didn’t realise it was beyond cleaning until I committed to cleaning it. Had the footage so thought I’d do a nice edit and post it regardless. 135k views and a fair few new subscribers says I made the right decision. Maybe I could do a full wheel refurb short in the future.

@audieconrad8995 2 года назад

I agree. It's one thing to clean a maintained or moderately dirty wheel but a whole other world to reconditioning something as appallingly neglected as the wheel in this vid - especially when using a commercial non-acid based cleaner! (Which btw for my experience and purposes works very well!) Not to mention getting at the notoriously difficult angles and tight corners of this particular design wheel. Man...some of the criticisms and snarky comments are soooo amateurish...

You inspired me to search for a car detailing job myself and i can definitely say brake dust this bad is annoying to get off at home but the brake dust eating acid we have at work gets the job done so easily with a sponge and brushes, helpful on work vans but their wheels are often so far gone with blistering and surface rust. No fancy colours, just green to brown :p

@jpmdenver Год назад

I bought used wheels that had plenty of brake dust. This bottle is worth every penny of it!!!!

@darius2640 2 года назад

when I had a major brakedust issue, 3-4 years of neglect, I used 30% HCl acid, but I wish I haven't, it was very effective at cleaning but even though I was working in open field and standing as far as possible it created clouds of toxic visible fumes that irritate your eyes and arrest your breathing to the point of choking. Never ever doing that again. I thought consumer grade products were just too weak for something as dirty as that but this one seems to do 90% as good which is good enough, wish I used this instead

@shanechopko5523 2 года назад

I think with agitation you’d see closer to 95%. You would have to go back and re apply, with a tar remover, once the wheels were off to get 98% of contaminants off. But, I can’t believe you did that! 3-4 years of neglect of your car and you decide cleaning the wheels was the first step?

@Jeremys_Garage 2 года назад

That meguairs non acid wheel and tire cleaner is a pretty impressive product I would suggest using that

@leesmith6750 2 года назад

That's just a lot of brake dust over a prolonged period. Proper baked on stains the alloy and can't be removed. Almost like it etches itself to the alloy. I did use bilt hamber, but found it would sit in behind the centre caps no matter how much rinsing. It would seep out when you drove. The only solution would be to remove the cap prior to use. But run the risk of damaging the cap if not removing the wheel.

@Southsidefulldetail 2 года назад

@JohnCunningham-sy5ug 2 года назад

Dawn dish soap and a brush. Same results. Or for old aluminum wheels oven cleaner does the job

@kio51423 2 года назад

..All I use is a small bucket, half-filled with soapy water (powder-soap used for washing clothes), and my trusty old ordinary SPUNGE. Brings back the shine on all four rims. And if there's cv-joint grease on the rim, I just spray a bit of degreaser beforehand, and wash off after 30 seconds of letting it sit. Gets the job done everytime 😉👌

This video makes me feel better about my own work. I did a relatives car the other day and was gutted that there was still stubborn crap left in the corners of the alloys, even after 2-3 passes, lots of scrubbing, and 0.5l of wheel cleaner later the corners still had crap in them. How would you deal with this? Just keep persisting with the wheel cleaner? I was thinking that then I thought this is starting to get expensive with how much I was using. Any help is appreciated

@CarCleaningGuru Год назад

If an active cleaner like this doesn’t shift it then a dedicated wheel acid is your last shot. If that doesn’t shift it then they’ll probably need a full refurbish as there’s only so far you can go with cleaning.

You don’t, you can use a rust inhibitor like Bilt Hamber Atom Mac before and after to reduce how rusty they get during the cleaning process but intentionally spraying them with an active product like this will just turn them orange and make a big mess of your freshly cleaned wheels as soon as you brake.

@RobWhittlestone 2 года назад

Hi CCG, I have a serious question about de-ionising water - do you know of or can you recommend a de-ionising setup? Some US detailers use setups designed for RVs (motorhomes). Why I ask - where I live the water is extremely hard (60°FH) and contains CaCO3 BUT ALSO Gypsum (Calcium Sulphate CaSO4) that is NOT removed by my water softener. The aim of the de-ioniser would be to remove the Gypsum from the water so I can rinse and not get white marks all over the car. I have a softened water connection in the garage (12°FH) which should be good for washing but I still need to de-ionise it for rinsing the car. Any ideas? All the best, Rob in Switzerland

You can spray, soak & rinse if they’re not too bad but ideally you would want to agitate with an appropriate brush to get the best out of the product.
