This isn't a review as such, because the pictures do all the talking. I thought I'd just share these pics with everyone. Alot of people probably aren't sure about buying a gallon of wheel cleaner incase it turns out to be a bad buy, but rest assured, with Meguiars Wheel Brightener you won't be disappointed.



For those of you who haven't had the pleasure of using Meguiars Wheel Brightener from their Detailer range, here are a few pics showing you just what you're missing.



No agitation of any kind was used, just the force of the spray bottle and the water from the hose.



Pic 1 - Wheel before I started. Over 6 weeks worth of brake dust.

Pic 2 - 5 seconds after a liberal spray of Wheel Brightener (diluted 4:1 as recommended by Meguiars).

Pic 3 - After another liberal spray of Wheel Brightener, approx. 1 min. after pic 2.

Pic 4 - After a good rinse with the hose, approx. 1 min. after pic 3.

Nice turn around :up



So how corrosive/acidic is Wheel Brightner, the #36 Hi-tech cleaner is working out too expensive. At a ratio of 10:1, a gallon would last a long time.......
 
I think you can get the same results with EO A2Z. I used it on my last wash and I generously sprayed down my wheels/tires before I put in some quarters for the pressure rinse and it got them looking like I had spent 5 minutes scrubbing each one.
 
The Wheel Brightener is much more powerful than the A2Z, truzoom. It will do what you did but without the pressure from the pressure wash.



NickM, I wouldn't leave it on the wheels very long, that's for sure.



It's really one of Meguiar's best products; it's one that they use as a hook, if the rep has one product to demonstrate it will probably be this one. I saw it used on a wheel that may have NEVER been cleaned in 10 years, it was a "spray on/hose off" demonstration. It didn't come out perfect (it's not a MIRACLE product, after all), but it was one heck of a time and labor saver.



I'm not a big believer in wheel cleaners, but if I was going to get one this would be it.
