Expert Notes

Angelwax Bilberry RTU is the ready to use version of the non-acidic Bilberry wheel cleaner, so there is nothing to mix. It removes brake dust, traffic film and road grime without strong acids, and Angelwax states it is safe on all wheel types, including painted, lacquered and powder-coated finishes, as well as plastic centre caps and trims. We see it as a maintenance wheel cleaner for regular washes: rinse and cool the wheel, spray, agitate where needed and rinse thoroughly. It suits anyone who wants a straightforward routine for everyday wheels. Pair it with soft wheel brushes, a separate wheel bucket and a wheel sealant to make future cleans easier.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Alloy wheels
  • Painted wheels
  • Lacquered wheels
  • Powder-coated wheels
  • Plastic centre caps
  • Wheel trims

Caution: Clean one cool wheel at a time and never let the cleaner dry on the surface, especially on wheels that are hot after a drive.

How To Use

Application

  1. Rinse the wheel to remove loose dirt and cool the surface.
  2. Spray Bilberry directly onto the wheel face and barrel.
  3. Agitate with a soft wheel brush if the wheel needs it.
  4. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
  5. Finish each wheel fully before moving on to the next.

Aftercare

  1. Dry the wheels with a dedicated wheel towel.
  2. Rinse wheel brushes after use and keep them apart from paintwork tools.
  3. Consider a wheel sealant or wheel wax to make future cleaning easier.
  4. Store the bottle upright and sealed, away from frost and heat.
  5. Keep the bottle out of reach of children.

Top Tip: Clean the wheels and tyres before the bodywork, so brake dust is not splashed onto freshly washed panels.

The Brand

Angelwax

Angelwax is a car detailing brand that describes its team as innovators, chemists and perfectionists, with over 25 years of experience in the chemical industry behind its formulas. According to the brand, all of its products are designed, formulated and manufactured at its headquarters in Paisley, Scotland. Its range covers the whole detailing process, from exterior wash and decontamination products to wheel cleaners, interior cleaners, polishes and compounds, hand-poured waxes and ceramic coatings for both professional and consumer use. Angelwax also produces a nautical care range for boats and has a network of certified installers for its professional coatings.

The Drivers HQ stocks Angelwax with car waxes at its centre. Dark Angel is a hand-poured wax made for black and dark paintwork, and for matte paint there are Luminosity Matte Wax and Luminosity QED, a matte quick detailing spray. Stripped-Ease removes old wax before a fresh coat, Vision cleans the glass, and the AnGel Plastic & Interior Dressing looks after the cabin.

Angelwax suits enthusiasts who enjoy a hands-on wax routine. Stripped-Ease takes old wax off the paint, a wax such as Dark Angel then adds gloss and protection, and owners of matte paint can use Luminosity Matte Wax and QED instead. Vision for the glass and AnGel for the interior plastics complete the job inside and out.

AngelWax Bilberry RTU – Superior Automotive Wheel Cleaner - The Drivers HQ

Designed and Made in Scotland

Angelwax describes itself as more than just another detailing brand. In its own words, the people behind it are innovators, chemists and perfectionists with over 25 years of experience in the chemical industry, who have spent years developing and refining their range of detailing products. The brand says every formula is crafted with precision and tested across the globe.

All Angelwax products are designed, formulated and manufactured at the brand's global headquarters in Scotland, which it lists at the Airlink Industrial Estate in Paisley. Several of its product descriptions refer to formulas developed in-house at its UK laboratory, including the Cleanliness pre-wash and Blue Rinse. Alongside its Scottish base, the brand also lists a European distribution centre and a distribution office and warehouse in the USA.

Formulation #1 has a long history with the brand. Angelwax says it was the very first detailing wax the brand developed, and that it has remained a favourite with enthusiasts and professional detailers since its original launch in 2009. Scent is part of the brand's character too, as its tagline Heaven Scent, Wicked Finish suggests: Dark Angel carries a chocolate fragrance, and the brand says its bilberry fragrance was made famous within its detailing range.

Waxes, Wheel Care and Wash Essentials

Waxes are at the heart of the Angelwax range. Formulation #1 is a carnauba detailing wax that the brand says is hand-poured in small batches from natural waxes and oils, delivers a deep wet-look gloss and needs only a thin application layer. Dark Angel was developed specifically for black and dark-coloured vehicles, blended with natural waxes and conditioning oils to enrich dark paint tones and help reduce the appearance of light swirls and wash marks.

The Bilberry name runs through the brand's wheel care. Bilberry wheel cleaner is a non-acidic formula for removing brake dust and road grime, and Angelwax describes it as safe for all wheel types, including painted, lacquered and powder-coated finishes. Bilberry Wheel Wax then adds a protective barrier against brake dust and road grime to help keep wheels cleaner for longer, and the same bilberry fragrance is available as a hanging air freshener.

For the wash, Angelwax says FastFoam produces a thick foam that clings to the car to loosen dirt and traffic film before contact washing, and that it is safe for waxes, sealants and ceramic coatings when used correctly. Inside the car, Absolution is made for seats, carpets, floor mats and fabric trim, Heaven for Leather is a pH-neutral cleaner for leather upholstery, and Excelsior cleans canvas, mohair, cloth and vinyl soft tops.
