You won't regret it. Best product I have used for keeping polished wheels clean. NOT for use with painted, powder coated or anodized surfaces.
I have the Kinesis Supercups and with all the bolts around the wheel, it would kill my fingers to get in there and clean the surface between them.
The P21S comes with it's own applicator. It's as easy as washing your wheels with a sponge. I haven't had to touch my wheels with aluminum polish in months.
The P21S polishing soap works great. Seriously BUY IT!

I have several sets of wheels w/clear coat finishes, and have had very good experience.........personally would not chrome a reverse drop (flat lip) rim.........I've bent my 19s and know they need all the strength they can muster. Chrome does not help alloys (alluminum).......I think a term used is 'embrittlement'.
As a daily driver (that occaisonally hits stuff).....strength & servicability important here. I've repaired my polished rims many times........clean easily w/NeverDull wadding......Zoopseal is also a product people put on polished rims to keep maintenance down.
