Very cheap, very good Wheel cleaner!

[Ol’ Tarby]

Its £4 in Morrisons.

Ill grab another couple of bottles tomorrow then, especially after I've just read it can be used all over the car. Cheers Danny

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

No problem James! I need to get more myself actually!

Got 3 bottles in morrisons the other day, can't get enough of it.

Also, can you dilute it or will it just ruin it?

I was going to ask that? Dilute it for use on bodywork or is it fine as is?

 

[Coby.]

I dilute for my wheels.... Plenty strong enough with a 1:1 dilution.

Andy nose.

 

[Adamm.]

I topped mine up with water once I got halfway through a bottle.

Got 1 full bottle and 1 diluted now so should last a reasonable while I hope.

 

[Coby.]

I've not even used 1 bottle since I got them off Jamie and I've used it quite a bit, Great stuff and more than strong enough when diluted to remove general grime and light break dust, Fir everything else there's IX

 

[JD]

So I've just picked up another 10 bottles of this in Morrisons. £4 each. I'm going to see if Halfords will match it and see if I can get a sneaky 342 deal as well.

 

[Mr R.]

Let me know if you start selling matey.

 

[Coby.]

I love your persistence with this product... Your local Halfords manager must hate you.

I still have 1 1/2 bottles left from what I bought off you.

I'll start buying for you lot, but won't be posting pal. Too much effort. Happy to bring a load down to Ant's?

Andy, aye, well since it should be hella cheap, I almost buy it as an FU to Halfrauds in the future. Might as well buy it while Morrisons have it on the cheap. Just wish I'd made more of the Tesco/Halfords deal first time around and not had to fall through for Rob, Scrooge et al.

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Forgot Morrisons were selling it at £4! Will need to pick some up!

 

[Mr R.]

Cool JD, didn't expect it posted mate.

 

[Jaff.]

Morrisons have always had it for £4

 

[Amos91]

And as someone else pointed out its in B&Q 3 for 2. So roughly the same price for 3

But they won't honour the price match online. So has to be in store.

 

[marshall878]

Register your card with top cashback and they track your spending. Neednt buy online.

Yep. £4 buddy.

I got some more earlier

I've recently been trying out some stuff called Viro-sol. About £7 for 5 litres, that you dilute 10:1, so will probably last a lifetime. It's pretty good stuff, it's cirtus based, so wont harm the alloy surface, and shifts muck and grime nicely. Still do a quick spray of Iron X though afterwards to get the iron deposits off.

At 1% dilution, it's pH 11. That's definitely not going to be good for your wheels. It looks like truck wash! But welcome to the forum all the same!

True, it is quite a high Alkali based cleaner. But then to be effective on wheels it either needs to be high in acidity or alkalinity. If not, you may as well stick to PH neutral shampoo/snowfoam and a brush.

Used correctly and with a bit of common sense, I dont think it will do the wheels much harm. I wouldnt be rushing to use it weekly on a set of damaged alloys though, thats for sure.

Oh, and thanks for the welcome

I think I'll pass on that one then

 

[Alastair.]

May have to try this stuff out in the morning, find out what all the fuss is about.

That's the point, chap. Clean then properly, seal the wheels and then you'll need just that - warm soapy water.

What's best to seal the wheels with?


Edit, just ordered Planet Polish wheel and seal.

I'm not sure I'd waste my time on wheels now on anything less than a quartz / glass coating on wheels

Little bump.

Anyone got an updated cheap price for this or is it still Morrisons at £4?
