I recently picked up some grung on my front wheels.

This crud resisted conventional cleaning methods. I tried some 303 Aerospace Cleaner that I use on the boats. That stuff loosened the crud and a simple wipe down with a sponge and a water rince made the wheels sparkle like new.

If you have a real dirty job, give the 303 a try.

Also note that because most factory wheels are clearcoated, you can use a claybar for stubborn contaminants. After, I recommend applying a synthetic sealant (Zaino, Klasse, Werkstatt, etc.) in two or three coats. It makes future cleaning much, much easier.

This stuff sounds too good to be true! I'll keep it in mind - sounds great.
