AdamC11 Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Hi Guys, Can you reccomend a very gud alloy cleaner please? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGull Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 There's Bilberry, Bilberry, Bilberry and erm, Bilberry. Did I mention Bilberry? It's awesome - only alloy cleaner you'll ever need. Smells great and it's non-acidic. It also dilutes, so goes a long way. Make sure you get a chemical resistant sprayer to go with it however... i4D Get it here - and use FOCX to get 7.5% off.

Another couple of good ones are the Auto Glym Alloy Wheel cleaner and wonder wheels (available from Halfords). Comes with a shaving type brush for application, that is my personal favourite.

If bilberry ruined youre centre caps then what does wonder wheels do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGull Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Absolutely - wonder wheels and AG alloy cleaner (not the difference between this and custom wheel cleaner) are acidic and make Bilberry look like Ribena in terms of harshness. I use Bilberry at 1:4 and it's mild as anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a very strong mixture of Bilberry and it marked all centre caps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artscot79 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Agreed. an old trick is quarter of a small cup of washing powder for the degreasing and 4 drops of lemon juice then add about 1 litre of water using a wheel brush it gets them lovely and clean its cheap and non acidid as the lemon juice is well concentrated and they will smell all lovely too its what i use when i run out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Mat- Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Autobrite Very Cherry..... Same/similar to bilberry, but a touch cheaper :D Oh, and make sure you use a wheel sealant after you've got them all scubed up nice and shiny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
