    Anyone know if this wheel and tire cleaner will eventually degrade the adhesive on these stick on wheel weights? Says non acid so would assume it’s safe on wheels and tires as long as I follow the instructions.

    What didn’t you like about it? What do you personally use now? I’ve seen the other posts on multiple other products.

    It wasnt strong to clean the wheel. Need to scrub harder and spray more on areas that didnt clean Well. I used their iron remover which took care of it alot faster on my RW wheels. I use carpro iron x usually just didnt have it.

    If you do need a wheel cleaner, try Sonax Full Effect.....it'll get the job done. Once clean, coat them and you won't need a wheel cleaner again. Mine get coated twice a year and I use soap and water for cleanup. Truck is a daily driver and gets 14k miles a year put on it. Currently using McKees Wheel Coating until I use it up....will be switching to CarPro Dlux once it's gone.

    Yeap i have prius wheels coated with carpro cquartz makes it alot easier the truck gets barely used. And have ebc yellow pads and letting it sit for awhile dont help neither. I always wanted to try sonax could never find a deal in them.
