I received this product from AG for a review on some of their new Griots line.
Product: Griots Wheel Cleaner
Description: Griot's Garage Wheel Cleaner cleans wheels safely and effectively with a concentrated, biodegradable formula. BBS, the manufacturer of wheels for Ferrari, Porsche, and Lotus, approves Griot's Garage Wheel Cleaner for the cleaning of their high end wheels. Use Griot's Garage Wheel Cleaner on all types of wheels.
Cost: $9.99 for 35 oz (Comes with chemical resistant sprayer.
Directions: Spray onto wheel. Wait one minute and agitate with brush or mitt.
I am pretty anal about my wheels and usually have them protected with either Poorboys Wheel Sealant or Zaino CS. Therefore, my wheels don't get very dirty and I usually only clean them with soap and water.
Griots wheel cleaner appears to be very mild and even has a sticker on the bottle saying it is approved by BBS wheels. If you are looking for a harsh wheel cleaner this is not it.
This is the perfect wheel cleaner for those with aftermarket wheels and those that require a very mild and safe wheel cleaner.
The victim my 2005 Toyota 4 Runner wheel.
Griots Wheel Cleaner with chemical resistant spray and EZ Detail Brush
Spraying onto the wheel. Foams nicely. Smells great with no acidic smell.
Working with EZ Detail Brush and Swissvax Wheel Brush
End result...All clean
Bottom Line: This is a very safe and effective wheel cleaner. It will require agitation on any wheel that you use it on. I can see this having a nice place in my detailing arsenal when I do have some grimey wheels that will need more than soap and water for a cleaning. If you are looking for a harsh wheel cleaner to remove caked on brake dust this is not it.
Overall impressions: A nice and safe wheel cleaner. Hope you enjoyed
