Wheel wells...

[dternst]

I spent an entire day washing and detailing my `99 Chevy Pickup daily driver last weekend. I stood back to admire my work and the wheel wells stuck out like a sore thumb. Any suggestions on what to use to clean and then "restore" the clean new look of the wheel well?



Thanks in advance,



David

Simple Green and a long handled brush.

Agree with membim. I would also dress them with Stoners Trim.

I`m going to give Meg`s Citri-Gel a shot soon. I have been using Castrol Super Clean from Wal-Mart;just want to experiment with something else.



I`ve also been very pleased with dressing the wheel wells with Meg`s Engine Kote once I get them clean :up

2nd vote for Engine Kote as wheel well dressing!

At what strength should Simple Green be used for the wheel wells? 100%?

I just finished detailing my Reatta and used Mop `n` Glo on my wheelwells. I`ll post pics later today.

I use it full strength. However, you could probably get away with cutting...

For wheel wells, I use it @ 100%.

do any of you guys have pics or a link to the brush you use. all the brushes i have wont fit:(

Get a toilet brush with the horseshoe-shaped head (not the round one). It will fit behind most tires and is stiff enough.



To add to the chorus, APC+ at 4:1.

Yep, this has worked well for me too. I also see a fancy wheel well brush in the Griots catalog.
