any wheel dirt repelling cleaner?




My wife got a new car with chrome wheels ... WOW do they shine.

Well, now I keep noticing my nasty painted gray wheels ... sure they look good cleaned, but ... do I have to clean them everyday?

The inside off set gets the break dust and YIKES, its dirty after a couple of days.


does anyone know of a good product that cleans and repels dust and dirt?

Rats them new cars with chrome wheels.

try wheel wax. BMW sells it as do others. You put it on as you would any wax and its supposed to keep your wheels cleaner and easier to clean when they get dirty. I've tried it and it does make it easier to clean and noticed that my wheels stayed more brake dust free.

Waxing the wheels with a ploymer like ReJex or a Marine Polish by Starbrite help with cleaning them but does not help to keep the brake dust and road grim off them.

Eagle 1 makes a spray on product that I tried but it dries sort of chaulky. I just tried a product from Armour All for the wheels that does not allow brake dust stick ect. It dries clear and the wheels look good for a lot longer.
