Default McGuire's Hot Rims Chrome Wheel Cleaner

Just thought I'd pass along that I picked up some of the aforementioned wheel cleaner to try and get off all the corrosion on my wheels from the horrid winter we had and it is AMAZING!

I was scared my wheels might be ruined b/c they actually looked like they might be rusting. I scrubbed with soap and water that my hand hurt and I didn't even make a dent in the grime. I then tried some chrome polish I had and barely made a mark.

I picked up this wheel cleaner spayed it on, and used a soft bristle brush about the size of a tooth brush and used just a touch of elbow grease and they came out looking damn near as good as new!

I have used it since on all the wheels just for routine cleaning and the shine lasts for weeks! After spraying it on this last time I saw a spot that looked like it would need to be scrubbed, but when I rinsed it off with a stream of water from a regular hose with a nozzle on it the grim washed right away.

The only touching of the wheels I had to do was with my drying rag.

I knwo everyone has their own methods and chemicals, but I just thought I'd share how amazed I was with this.

McGuire's Hot Rims Chrome Wheel Cleaner. Just thought I'd say it again!

It is a little bit more than others, but I was desperate! And I'm getting old (27) and my hands can't take the scrubbing.

I always perfer the mcguiars on my wheels, everytime I clean my wheels with that stuff I want to keep my black caps off because the the chrome is so shiny,

so my solution I ride with the driverside in black and passenger side in chrome when I get undecisive of wich look I want to go with.

I use Mcguairs detail spray after washing the car and works great always

the mcguairs tire shine is always great

for plastic pieces like your headlights and tailights pick up mothers plastic polish and put on them then wipe off, you will be amazed with this...
