Meguiar's Hot Rims Wheel & Tire Cleaner, Powers Through Brake Dust & Grime – 24 Oz Spray Bottle

My chrome wheels look like mirrors. The precious water stains are gone. Very happy with the results.

I forgot to take a "before" photo before washing the wheels, but the first picture is 1 day before cleaning them when my car was at the mechanic shop. I only had to spray and scrub once, didn't have to do a second pass.I've always loved Meguiar's since they're affordable and work just as good as some of the more expensive options.

I use this on four 17" OEM rims. I used to clean all four with a brush (shape and size of a broom) using auto cleaning detergent, and it was a chore to thoroughly clean them all. With this, it does most of the cleaning work while I let it sit for about 30 seconds before rinsing each rim with water. It works!The problem I have with this is by the time I was finished, there was about 20% left in the bottle so that's not enough for the next cleaning. So if you like it after you have tried this, get the 1 gallon ($20 or less if you can find a good deal) so you can save some money and have plenty for future uses.I also recommend buying a heavy duty spray bottle (bought one from Home Depot for $4 on sale). The reason is because this spray bottle top is very difficult to remove (had to use a monkey wrench) if you need to refill, and the opening is small so it's going to be a mess refilling unless you have a small funnel.

I hate that I didn't take a before and after picture. This stuff is amazing. I mean the right just comes right off.

This gets 5 stars from me. I was absolutely amazed at how well this stuff cleans. Just a little about me. I have never cared how my cars have looked. Im almost 50 and every car I have owned got washed about twice a year and the inside got cleaned about once a year if they were lucky. I recently bought a used nissan leaf that was in awesome shape. Something about this car has triggered something in me to really try and keep it looking great so I bought all kinds of cleaners for both inside and out to try and help me keep it that way. Maybe its the new to me thing and in a few months time I wont care again but for right now, its actually kind of fun. Anyways Here is me putting meguiars up against sonax wheel cleaner.where to start. I put this up against meguiras hot wheel and rim cleaner and I must say I was a little shocked. Here was my setup.2001 dodge caravan. The rims have never been scrubbed and the wheels have never been scrubbed either. Sure they have went through automatic carwashes, my wife usually did it about once a week but never have these rims been scrubbed at all by hand. Surprisingly they were not nearly as bad as some youtube videos I saw so I guess car washes once a week still helped out a bunch.Anyways following directions for both, the sonax sat on the rims for 4 minutes and the meguiras about 30 seconds.I really expected more from a $20 bottle of wheel cleaner, I saw lots of youtube videos and I just felt this was going to stomp meguiras. Keep in mind I had no plans on putting this up against anything. Turned out I forgot I put the $5 add on bottle of meguiras in an earlier order to meet my minimum then the next day I bought this.Anyways the sonax did ok. It took a fair amount off, It did turn nice and red which makes you think its working its butt off. After the rinse though, it was still very dirty. The meguiras rim, you could see in just 30 seconds it sliding right off. Rinse and inspect and it got a lot more of the rim cleaned than the sonax rim.So for the other 2 wheels I did the exact same test but this time I used a small round detailing brush to get into the lug nut holes and went ahead and used it to go over the entire rims, mind you this was a fairly soft brush so there was no real scrubing action here.The sonax wheel did better this time but still left some areas on the rim. I suspected as much as it was not a scrubbing brush I was using. The meguiras rim just amazed me. Same brush, almost no pressure at all and after the rinse that rim looked amazing. There were still a couple spots but it got the majority of it off with so little effort.So my conclusion, Sonax did ok. Not $20 ok but it did work. The $5 bottle of meguiras though, it blew it away. In a no touch situation it was better than sonax but not night day difference. In touching the rims to clean though, sonax again did ok but that $5 bottle did it in a fraction of the time. The downside with meguiras is you will go through more of it quicker. I did 4 rims and tires and I had between half and 1/4th left. So if sonax can clean about 15 cars with one bottle then maybe it is more price efficient but it also took longer and more cleaning effort.---------------------I dont care if I go through a bottle a car, the less time I spend bent over trying to clean a wheel and rim will make up for the extra cost.I did not mention that after my test was done, I went over all 4 wheels with meguiars tire shine. I have to admit, the wheels on that van look absolutely fantastic but the rest of the van looks like crap lol. It hasnt seen a wax job in years. The paint is fading, water does not slide off at all. I bought a bottle of nu finish so I cant wait to see if it can do anything for it, It really needs a complete paint correction but it would cost way to much to have it professionally done and I dont have that kind of money to waste on an old van.

No dislikes I’m satisfied with the product.

Works as described was stronger than expected

This wheel and tire cleaner is some of the best if you don't believe me watch the video of project farm on YouTube. He test all kinds of stuff and doesn't take payment from any company. He does lots of test on the product he is testing and you can make your own decision or he will rate them and tell you what he thinks is best. He will test just about anything and i believe he is a engineer so is very smart. If i go to buy anything i usually go see if he has a video and what he says is best. Alot of people already know about him and if you don't go watch one of his videos and I bet you will like it.

Es de buena calidad y deja lipios los rines.

Good

Very effective product, easy to use, my 4 years old car alloy wheels are very dirty, after use this product, alloy wheels shine like new, thanks amazon for this product

The media could not be loaded.  Der Reiniger macht was er soll, aber erwartet keine Wunder.Ich habe im Video Felgen, welche eine Session nicht geputzt wurden mit wenig Aufwand sehr sauber bekommen. Ich kann nur den Tipp geben, macht das im Schatten mit kühlen Felgen. Um sparsam mit dem Mittel umzugehen, nehmt einfach einen alten, weichen und sauberen Pinsel. Mit dem könnt ihr das Mittel gut verteilen und der Schmutz löst sich auch besser.Die Mercedes Felgen sind mein Härtebeispiel. Diese wurden mehrere Jahre (müssten um die 4 Jahre gewesen sein) nicht sauber gemacht.Das Mittel hat nicht alles wegbekommen aber das hatte ich auch nicht erwartet

I used this product to degrease the front of my kitchen cabinets. Works effortlessly.
