P21s gel wheel cleaner worth it?

[mikenap]

I have also used the Chemical guys Diablo wheel gel which is also pH balanced but it SUCKS! it doesn't really eat at the brake dust to well. but it is safe to use on anything and doesn't cost as much as the P21s

Oh, thank God I'm not the only one who thinks so. It was flavor-of-the-month for a bit, but aside from a pleasant smell and good price, it doesn't have much else going for it.

If your wheels are in bad shape then you need something strong to get them cleaned. Once they are clean, you can seal them. This will make it easier to clean them with soap and water.
So, to answer your question, P21S Gel is the real deal and worth the price if you need it. I have used it and like it, but my fav is Sonax Full Effect Wheel Cleaner:clap:

I just started using the Sonax and I like it as well on messy rims.

I've read a ton of people say how bad it smells. For me the smell isn't as bad as what I expected. It's not nice but it wasn't overpowering or anything. Must just be me :tongue:

I have been and still use P21S Wheel Cleaners. My asthma is touchy with alot of wheel cleaners out there.

Sonax Full Effect all the way! It is neutrilized acid, basically, and is as safe as P21S, yet it actually works on caked on brake dust, where P21S often fails...With Sonax Full Effect out there, there is NO POINT in having P21S, IMO...
