ONR User, Do you Pressure wash the wheels still?

Well I have been used ONR on 12 vehicles so far since I purchased it a week ago. Let me just say its a fantastic wash. My customers cant beleive the shine and slickness. Anyway, do most of you guys pressure wash the wheels still? I have not been, but most of customers are on my maintance plan, so there brakedust and wells do not get as dirty as new customers.

It may be a dumb question, but I have not used my pressure washer since I have been using the ONR. I am just trying to get my pattern down with using the ONR. I always wash and clean the wheels and wells first anyways.

If they are caked with break dust and dirt -yes. Otherwise, no. However, if I pull out the pressure washer to do the wells I will do the rims/tires with it as well.

I only pressure wash when there is caked dirt and mud in the wells or there is a lot of neglect. 95% of the cars I clean the wheels, tires and wells with ONR from a 2gallon sprayer, occasionally using a little bit of APC.

Only with the filthiest of wheel wells. One thing you will find with your regulars...cleaning and dressing the wheel wells with each wash makes them a lot easier to clean, even if they get really dirty.
