Wymun Neutral Newbie May 20, 2002 Share May 20, 2002 Any recommendations for a spray-type wheel cleaner for alloy rims? I'm generally pretty lazy when it comes to cleaning my wheels and am looking for a good spray-on and hose-off type... So far I've tried Meguair's spray and TurtleWax foam, but these don't seem to work well.... Grateful for any suggestions... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
