How to do a rinseless wheel wash

Nice video.
It is interesting to see so many different approaches to do things on this forum.
I like your Blaster Side Kick.

Question:
How would you compare Meg's Super Degreaser to products such as Simple Green, Purple Power, etc....?
 
I've never tried simple or purple. I know they are easily available locally so that's a plus. I actually just bought 5 gallons of Stoners degreaser and it's comparable to the Meg's stuff, only much cheaper. Neither smell good per say but the Meg's is a more preferable scent while the stoners just has a strong chemical odor. The both dilute the same which is a must when using a lot. I don't think your supposed to dilute the green or purple so the cost efficiency really isn't there for me.

I may be slow, but I do poor work.

Purple Power actually does dilute, but different ratios for each task as specified on bottle.
 
thanks for the vid. I'll have to contact you soon about having some detail work done on my wifes car. Where in Jax are you located?
 
When I clean my wheels I always do the barrels too. You charge extra to clean the barrels? I consider it part of the wheel.

Simple green does dilute down and it does an okay job for me but not better than megs all purpose.

I'm on the Westside. As for the barrels it's really a case by case matter. I build my packages based on an expectation of pay by hour. I never use the term "full detail" or "all inclusive" because these can mean different things to different people. My packages include the most popular items that people look for in a clean car. I know how long it will take me to do these packages on average. If the wheels are maintained to a degree then it will not take much longer to clean them. But if they have years of baked on crude that will add an extra 15 minutes a piece then yes I will need to charge for that hour. I could build that expense into my packages but wheel barrels being clean is not something my average client is really interested in.
