I`ve used this on my tires for a few years now with great results. I`ve even used it on my rims (stock Ford SUV rims) a couple of times when I`m out of wheel cleaner.
I feel the product is effective, but do you think it`s too strong or damaging my wheels/tires?
Any Bleche White supporters or opponents out there?

Thats all I ever use, but I would NEVER use it on the rims. Do you put another coat of wax on them after doing that? I can guarantee that it takes the LSP right off.
I try my best to keep it from getting on the rims.
You ever get the stuff on your hands? :nervous2:

Ehh, it`s sort of old school and there are better products out there. I would never use that stuff on my rims, either.

It`s all I use, I think it is great stuff and I have yet to find a better product. As for wheels, unless they are like steel wheels, I wouldnt touch them with it. Very acidic. Of course I don`t spray anything on my wheels after armor all wheel cleaner took the clear off my 4runner wheels in 45 seconds! Ouch

I`ll check out the Eagle One this next season. And I`ve never considered waxing my wheels.
So obviously I`m a noob.
I will say it doesn`t bother my hands but it`s a challenge to use on a windy day. I don`t recommend inhaling it!!!

I try not to use tire or wheel cleaners anymore.
Seems like they all stain rims.

I`m not a huge fan of wheel cleaners either because I don`t want to stain any wheels.
Which method do you prefer? Car wash soap with lot`s of elbow grease? :nixweiss
What do you recommend on really dusty/caked up wheels?
To the OP. Didn`t mean to hijack the thread. I`ve never used Bleech White but I`ve heard it works wonders on white walls ;)

I try to avoid high alkaline products on my tires also. I have polished chromed rims with AIO and AJ on them. No doubt Bleach White would remove any sealants on them. A QD will remove brake dust and gunk on the rims. And Meg. Hot Shine is applied to the tires.

I have used Bleeche White on my older cars for years, and never had an issue with it. I still think it is the only thing that really cleans the rubber well. I try to avoid getting it on the wheels, and I work quickly on the tires so I can rinse and limit exposure to non-rubber surfaces. Spray on the tire, brush quickly, and rinse. That is all it takes. I would never use to clean wheels - get a wheel cleaner that is appropriate for the finish you have.

Anyone ever just spray some bleache white on the wheel wells while they`re down there? I don`t have a dedicated APC or de-greaser at the moment.

I`ve been contemplating this issue for a few weeks. I feel this stuff works great and for less than $5 you can have 64 oz. of Bleache White. For a business, this would be a great choice I think. I`m going to be using Megs Super Degreaser on engines. Has anyone used it on tires? How comparable to Bleache White.
What do you all think? Is there a safer GOOD tire cleaner that is still very affordable in bulk?? I use Megs Wheel Brightener for cleaning wheels and very happy with it so far. I`m ordering some DP wheel gel cleaner for the more delicate wheels.
