I use viro-sol on the alloys, cheaper than wonder wheels is well.

 

[Ross M]

yeah i use wonder wheels. quite good but strong. die from the fumes after i put it on too.

bit too acidic for my liking I use Meguiars Hot Rims on my rim.

Is viro-sol acidic, the ingredients are -

Nitrilotriacetate Trisodium Salt 10-20%
Surfactants 10-20%
Sodium Citrate 1-5%
Orange Terpenes 1-5%
Water Balance
Dye Trace

Its also sold more expensively under the name of MC2 multiclean I think.

Nitrilotriacetate trisodium is the salt of triacetic acid
Sodium citrate is the sodium salt of citric acid.

but when its all blended up who knows, defo got acidic contents anyway. Just got to make sure to rinse very thoroughly with clean water after use

take it it dont like powdercoating then! i haven't dared try it on mine, just use a strong shampoo mix spray that on then wash like normal.

no these are the factory original V6 wheels, the paint on them is shocking

hence why i tried it

you could poor anything on powdercoated wheels and you'll be hard pushed to damage it

172/182/proper cup wheels are shite paint finishes too, cup turinis are the worst for the paint bubbling and then failing off

Lot of controversy about MC2 a couple of years back on www.boxa.net when the Wax Wizard was rebranding Virosol as his own mixture "MC2":dapprove:

He was a supposed high-end valeter and said he regularly valeted JKay's cars and an authourized dealer of Swissol. He at the time was offering members a group buy deal for valeting so I got him to do my Porsche and Audi at the same time for I think £300 which included 5 litres of MC2 and 5 litres of shampoo which I can't remember the name,but both of these were rebranded by him and selling them at £25 a gallon instead of less than £10 for the original stuff

Saying all that, he did do a good job on my cars but I felt along with others a bit cheated.

Fred, Is Wonder Wheels ok as long as you thoroughly rinse off afterwards?

I always use Virosol in unconcentrated from everytime I wash the car but sometimes its not quite enough, so I bought some wonder wheels the other day as a more aggresive cleaner for getting rid of brake dust but haven't actually used it yet.

 

[Fred@BTM]

don't bloody use it on the V6 wheels, the paint will melt!

 

[Peperami]

The wheels on my cup have started to bubble, agree with the crap paint finish fella, its shocking.

 

[Justin]

what ever you do, dont get it in your eyes.. stings like F**K!

 

[Peperami]

Ha ha ha! In your eyes indeed! can bet on that hurting!

I heard something similar from a seat owner. Flipping heck though 5 litres of virosol is £4.99 probably work out cheaper if you buy the 25 litre drum of it. Its also excellent for cleaning round the house.

The Wax Wax Wizard and his un suspecting victims strikes again!

 

[Iain C]

i have some wonder wheels but have only used it once ... its lethal.
Jif (lemon fresh) or meglars wheel stuff

 

[Ads_172]

Don't get it on any cuts on your fingers either, I had to just dunk my hands in cold water for ages after to sooth them...

 

[mwatts_tci]

i just use a turle wax wheel cleaner, seems okay so far...anyone had any bad experiences of it?
