Meguiar's wheel cleaner is acid based, and I would not use it regularly.
DP is the best for money.

:iagree:

It's probably not a good idea to spray it on the tire either. I can't imagine that acid is good for the rubber of the tire. I just use the DP Wheel Gel on my wheel & tire. It's nice because one bottle cleans both safely and effectively. On dirtier tires, I use Meguiar's Safe D-Greaser. It's a stronger cleaner than the DP, but still gentle enough not to damage the tire.
 
APC+ is an absolutetly phenominal product. It is extremely versatile.

It does work great on carpets, it does foam a little but I cant compare to APC.. Ive never used APC. I usually spray APC+ on the carpets, let set for a minute, scrub lightly by brush, then I use a Bissel LGM to clean up. Works great.

I heard that stuff is great for carpet cleaning. I doesn't foam, like APC does.

I'v all ways used armor all's tire cleaner and have always had good luck. One of the few products I'v been pleased with over the years.

I also like Wolfgang, and Pinnacle gel tire cleaners, but they a little bit pricey, so I just stick with DP.

I love the DP Gel Whell cleaner. it is far better than the Meg's Hot Shot (imo) and other otc products I tried from Walmart, autozone, etc.

For really dirty wheels PB wheel cleaner is awesome! Very powerful stuff, but for weekly cleaning I use the DP product.

Poorboys Spray and Rinse is truly the only spray and rinse product I have ever used. It is citric acid based and very strong. Works well on painted and chrome wheels, but should NEVER be used on aluminum uncoated wheels.

What I will warn is follow the directions exactly. Wheels must be cool, wheels must be wet first, and you leave it on for two minutes. Must spray liberally and it will only work where sprayed. Great for a detailer cleaning up a neglected car and annually or bi-annual detailing sessions. Then move to the DP Wheel Sealant and you can use car soap and water between sessions. Tread safely ... and its a great product.
