    Aluminum safe APC / tire cleaner

    Hey guys,

    Im looking for a tire cleaner that will not haze the surface of mirror polished bare aluminum wheels.

    I tried optimum power clean but it left white spots on the wheels where it dripped, (was not used in the sun, did not allow to dry).

    Thanks!

    Poorboys APC is my go to for everything. Does not Pit/Stain alum.
    Formerly the "Best Detailer", now just Super Wax Waster Man. Not necessarily tactful, but normally right. It`s good to be da King !!!

    same here...it`s because his APC is detergent based not a heavy chemical...I also mix mine with water, one part APC to ten parts water. This will also aid in not staining the metals
