Wheel techniqe

[SWETM]

I could certainly see doing it during tire rotation, good idea. But taking the wheels off every car wash time to clean barrels? ah, hell naw. I aint that dedicated.

I clean the wheel barrels every time I clean the face of the wheels and tires. The Speed Master Wheel Brush is a good one I have domestic kind of bristle brush like that. And also the Wheel Woolies Spoke Wheel Brush which I get easier cleaning behind the spokes of the rims. Also if you want to have a high quality face wheel brush the Wheel Woolies one is awesome and very gentle.

I’m doing much better now, thanks for asking.

Yeah I've had the same issue.

As some have said here, a lighter bristled brush is safer to avoid scratching the faces of the rims. (This is coming from the perspective of detailing a customer's vehicle.) We'll typically avoid this step in the wash process as there is a greater potential for an employee to brush too hard and create some form scratch, marring, etc to the wheel face. Instead we'll foam rims/tires + rim cleaner and hand wipe down the rim faces once the vehicle has been completely finished and chamois.
