The Drivers HQ
Better Wheels is the wheel cleaner in the Better Car Care range: a non-acid concentrate with cleaning agents and degreasers for brake dust, road grime and grease. The strength is yours to set, from 1:3 on heavily soiled wheels to 1:9 for normal cleaning and 1:15 for light soiling, which keeps a bottle going a long way. It is non-acid but strongly alkaline, about pH 13.5, and contains sodium hydroxide, so wear gloves and eye protection, work on cool wheels in the shade, and test bare, polished or delicate finishes first. Avoid chrome, especially in the sun. Pair it with a soft wheel brush and Better Reaction for embedded iron.
Caution: Strongly alkaline and may corrode some metals: avoid chrome, especially in the sun, take care on bare or polished finishes, and test first.
Top Tip: Start weak at 1:15 on a wheel you clean every week and only go stronger when the brake dust needs it.
