The Dreaded Wheel Well...

[howareb]

If there is anything that I cannot stand more, is that wheel well (especially on SUVs). It is the one area on the car that no matter how hard I try I just cannot get it cleaned to my desires. I would rather do windows.



I am starting this thread to get people`s input on this one. My process is spray with an APC (Super Cleaner - Full Strength) Let sit for 10 mins and scrub with a stiff brush, rise with pressure washer and then repeat. With my final prep being a couple squirts of Armor All (Reg Shine) on a towel and then wipe the wheel well.



I would like to try Adam`s Undercarriage Spray product, so any input on that would be appreciated.

I use the same process as you, only difference is I PW before APC (and then again after as you described)and then dress with Stoners More Shine

I clean and scrub my wheel wells well enough to get the majority of grime out. After that I use armorall tire foam to dress. It has some pretty good cleaners in it that clean what I miss. I once even used it on a dirty tire as the cleaner (I was experimenting), there was a lot of brown coming off.

I do basically the same and finish it with Adam`s UnderCarriage spray

I do they same - clean and scrub with Simple green and dress with F21 Tire Foam

Megs APC with a foaming sprayer, let it dwell rinse. Hit it with APC foam again and a grout sponge, rinse. I`m still looking for my favorite dressing. Meg`s ASD works pretty good.

my wheel wells never really get that dirty, so using a sponge and APC/car wash soap gets them clean. i`ve been noticing the simple green APC in the aerosal version at walmart, and been wanting to try it, but haven`t yet. this looks pretty interesting...

A couple of car techs that I know said that they tried this stuff and they just would rather stay with the original. They said that it did not do as well of a job.

if the wheels wells get real dirty, i`ll spray some EO1 all wheel & tire cleaner in there and it really helps to dissolve the grime, etc...

maybe you should ask for some and try it out for yourself, then you`ll know for sure...
