TURTLE WAX WHEEL AND TIRE PREP VS MEGUIARS ULTIMATE ALL WHEEL CLEANER 

Here's the deal, the Turtle wax is MEGA strong and does not need to go on full strength. Put it 3 oz in a IK Foam Pro 2 sprayer and it works just as well and lasts 10x longer!

You're right on point. The iron remover is great for particulates, but really doesn't make a dent in regular day to day "road grime." TBH, Meguiar's hot rims wheel and tire cleaner works pretty well for the day to day grime, for an off the shelf product.

Can't go wrong with both! Good stuff! Thanks Demo Sir!

Haven't tried Turtle Wax yet but Meguiars works great on weekly washed vehicles, especially when agitated with a brush.

Haven't tried the TW but the Meg's is my favorite iron remover for wheels but it doesn't do much on tires which I'm fine with as it's a wheel cleaner. I may try the TW tire cleaner but I've really been liking Shine Supply Wise Guy for tires but they don't use it on ceramic coated wheels. It pulls the browning out just like the TW does in your video. I wonder if the TW is ceramic coating safe?

From my limited experience I believe most tire cleaners work about the same, they all require scrubbing (which is fine to me) but I believe scrubbing does a lot of the cleaning itself. Limiting what a cleaner can do, and leaving the potential difference between two different cleaners very small. I like to heavily clean my tires every 4-6 months (when I feel it needs it) mostly based on appearance, and maybe a light single pass scrub every 1-2 months just to help maintain a certain level of clean before I need to really scrub them down. I like to try new products, it's something to do, I always feel I can learn something new, but I've yet to find a product which worked noticeably better than any other I've used at any price. Every now, and than I will detail a family members car when they ask, it's easy money, and in situations like that, regardless of what tire cleaner I'm using, be it a cheap degreaser, or $12 bottle it will take 2-3 deep scrubbing passes per tire to get them to a point where I feel is acceptable to me. I don't much see the point in higher end tire cleaners, I don't believe they are a scam, or a waste of money I just don't believe I'm the target consumer for them. I don't believe most detailers are either, as maintaining a healthy profit margin is the point of the business (though it depends on what type of consumer you are after). You can easily spend a lot of money on products detailing a car, but you can also use cheap products and still get to that same level of clean in about the same time. These products to me seem to be targeted to consumers who don't know a ton about products and simply default to more expensive = better, which is fine, the products are not bad, I just can't personally justify them myself if I can do the same thing for 3-4 times less.

Great video buddy good to see you back detailing tfs

Can you use the meguiars on paint? I use the iron clay spray is it the same thing?

Used the TW w&T prep and it still has a pungent smell...more so than the Meguires hot rim (pink bittle)....I never do touchless wheel cleaning...first, I use less product and second, I ensure more areas get touched w/cleaner (inner barrel).

LOL you put way too much product on that wheel ;) Of course it's for the video but still. I wonder if the Meguiars Ultimate All Wheel is the retail version of their Detailers' line Iron Decon paint and wheel cleaner? If so it's an amazing product. I use it as an iron remover and love it.

Will either of these products be safe to use on ceramic coated wheels??

Can you use either of these of factory pvd finished wheels?

If the wheels are really caked in then I’ll use the meguires first and rinse off then use the rapid decon and then contact wash the wheels and rinse off, otherwise if it is is medium contamination I will just use the rapid decon instead of the hybrid. Foaming is key for contact wash so will add some autoglym snow foam to the wheel as well. As for the tyres I will also use a specialist tyre cleaner because rubber is very porous and you need a good dedicated tyre cleaner like Geyon’s with a decent tyre brush at least 2 goes until it goes white. This then makes the final tyre shine really embed into the tyre and not only last longer but provides a really deep shine

Hello what do you recommend for black rims?

Great Video!!

Good comparison, I like gallon size products.

Both are good products

Love the turtle wax! I bought it plus the iron remover/wheel cleaner and the tire foam worked fantastically! I used their new tire shine and it has been the best I've used as far as performance and durability. Excellent products for sure!!

Would it be possible to mix the two products together in an IK foamer and get the best of both worlds in one??🤷🏼

You should have compared turtle wax to meguiar's wheel and tire cleaner. It also has a great browning effect on the tires!

I believe the results will be better if the tires are rinsed before the product is sprayed on. I saw a tutorial from another youtube channel which showed the application of tire prep products after rinsing and the results are quite better i would say.

Mate that’s a bit ridiculous the amount of spraying 😂

Foam wins by default. You can dilute the TW Hyper Foam as well. I usually just pour the entire 23 oz bottle (1:1) into a 50 oz foam sprayer

Meguiars isn't too bad, but there isn't a wheel cleaner on the market which comes close to Bilt Hamber Auto Wheel. Bilt Hamber is by FAR the most reactive iron remover, it goes dark red quicker than any other (and I have tried at least 20 others), and it also has great detergent cleaning ability too. It's also CHEAP !

The thing about spray bottle wheel cleaners is after 2 washes the bottle is finished! Waste of money!

Sonax is the only thing I've ever found get anywhere near acid or brake cleaner on a rag.

hyperfoam is bomb

I usually wear face mask n shield n gloves when doing these cleaning, their fumes can be rather toxic ,n brushing gets spray onto eyes n face. Just my 2cts of personal safety using chemicals.

Casi nunca utilizo wheel & tires cleaners, cuando lo utilizo es Mothers, Meguiar's ultimate y Turbo Wax products.

Buy the gallon jug of Turtle Wax and use a foam cannon!

Foam makes the huge difference. Hybrid Solutions Hyper Foam wins

Alot of detailing companies will use the exact same formula. I'm pretty sure armor wheel and tire cleaner is a slightly watered down version of the hot rims wheel and tire cleaner by meguiars.

Check out ammo plum, best I've used so far.

Half a bottle per tyre?? So 2 bottles to do the whole car? Are you sure? I'd want them to visit my garage for this type of investment!

Whole bottle on one car? You've got to be kidding. How ridicioius

Foaming product wins... every time

For my money i'v found Turtle Wax is best for the tires and Meguiars is better for the wheels.

No sir, i dont like either of them. Koch chemie magic wheel cleaner 👑

The Turtle Wax product is brilliant but stinks like a gents toilet

Both of these are poor value, doing 4 tyres and wheels empties the bottle? No thanks

WASTE OF PRODUCT.....WAY TOO MUCH CHAMP...DONT NEED THAT MUCH
