I use plain soap and water too but Zymol does make a product specifically for wheels that if applied to a clean set of wheels does make subsequent cleanings much easier. It keeps the dirt from grabbing onto the surface and easier to remove.
FYI, I don't work for Zymol, it works for me.

You mean sister-in-laws, right? I wouldn't let my sisters wash my car like that, especially in that outfit (I am just a protective brother).

I would never trust my wife to wash my baby!! Let her stick to the laundry and dishes!!!

I don't even trust my gf to do laundry or dishes!!

Soap and water does the trick for me. The question for me is not so much how do I get my rims clean, but how do I prevent brake dust from settling on them shortly thereafter and ruining that shine. Anybody else have that problem?

Regards.

I usually put a wax on my rims after washing them. I find that it sort of repells the grease, and easy to remove it when you wash it.

speaking of wheels, how about tires? any good tire dressing products out there? after i give that shine to my tires, i take a drive and it splatters all over the rear quarter panels....any suggestions?

[MiamieNeSeX]

Clean them again when you get back

[MiamieNeSeX]

Dont forget the cleaning crew though

 

[Black Knight]

Hey Blue Knight

Stoner's "More Shine Less Time" is the best I have ever used. Use it very sparingly and allow ~1/2 hour to dry. It does not cake on like others and has a nice satin finish.

Just doing what I can to help.

Yup.

Has anybody here tried this stuff?

I had the 3M paint protection film applied to my side skirts and quarter panels for this reason. Nothing sticks to that stuff! Any surface dirt wipes off with a little quick detailer spray.
