I'm looking for a wheel cleaner that adds a good, slick shine to the PP wheels without ruining them. I can't find anything I like, or I'm too afraid to try something.

Can anyone make any sort of suggestion? Thanks!

Once cleaned use a product like Hydro 2 to seal them. It's quick and easy.

I use Adam's Vinyl/Trim/Tire cleaner with a brush and a coat of VRT once the tires are dry. The shine lasts a few weeks and they stay clean looking a while longer and are much easier to clean if kept on top of.

I would not use PP to clean your wheels. It contains urea 9.3 g/L, chloride 1.87 g/L, sodium 1.17 g/L, potassium 0.750 g/L, creatinine 0.670 g/L and other dissolved ions, inorganic and organic compounds. That can't be good for the finish.

They all do the same thing as every company uses the same mixers/distributors just different names but I've stayed with Adams/Shine supply/Ammo NYC.

I use this and confirm It doesn't harm the finish. My wheels are also coated with CQuartz so I don't do this every wash, I'd say once a month at best as brake dust Isn't too much of an issue. https://shinesupply.com/products/cool-guy

I rinse, spray on this stuff, let it sit 2~3 minutes, pressure spray it off, spray any detail spray (I use adams) on the rim to shine and dry. For the tires I use both Ammo's mud tire gel and Shine supply's decked out which can also both used on any plastic/trim to shine and protect from UV rays. :thumbsup:

I use Shine Supply Cool Guy wheel cleaner and their Wise Guy tire cleaner. Then follow up with their Ride Shine detail spray after drying the wheel....then their Decked Out tire dressing....I use Adams VRT on my daily driver tacoma on all trim, tires, etc. That stuff is great.

Just switched to Carbon/Ceramic break pads. Hopefully that helps a bit.

Any wheel cleaner will do.
It's painted finish so get a degreaser and wax the surface to keep brake dust from sticking.
