Wheel Wipes

[Rex]

Just been to Aldi, as you do, they have a product called Alloy Wheel Wipes, in a tube for $4. Sounds like a good idea, have bought but haven't tried. Cheap enough.

whats the active ingredient?

[Rex]

Doesn't actually say on the tube, just made in China so i am guessing it's Panda Excrement.

eeeep...sounds a bit scary man haha. As Dan will say, be careful about what it's got in it so that it's not too strong/doesn't eat through your paint.

[Rex]

It does say not to use on paint, specifically for alloy wheels. Will let you know

[DMS_Dan]

FYI most alloy wheels (all OEM ones) are painted exactly the same as the car is so be very very careful mate!

I just share the love of my Carnuba (I never spell it correctly!) body wax on the wheels

With the temps the wheels experience it probably doesn't last long. For wheels at the moment Optimum Opti-Seal is awesome but there is something better on the way, keep an eye out for when Car Care Products releases it

Haha Good old Aldi, I bought these puppies just to wipe the inside of my exhaust.

They work a treat and bring my twin pipes sparkling after a wash....not sure if i would actually use it on my rims though.

Either way, i am off to read up more on some high quality waxes before summer hits.

I just use an old microfibre mitt with hot soapy water (a drop of car wash in it) which does the trick nicely.

The rs4 reps take awhile to clean but they're nice when they're all done. I'd probably go through several tubes by the time I cleaned all my rims...lol
