slate67 Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 When washing my chrome wheels use the same stuff I use on my car: soap and water. If not shiny enough, use eagle 1 glass cleaner and a soft cotton cloth to shine to perfection. A coworker was extolling some type of castrol wheel cleaner that removes brake dust :o and "really cleans." HOw best to explain that that stuff will corrode the chrome wheels? Or am I incorrect in this belief? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 A lot of those wheel cleaners will pit and strip the clearcoat off the wheels. I wouldn't use glass cleaner either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the reply. So, just soap and water and buff with a cloth? :) Have a great day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
