    Can someone shine some light on Griots wheel cleaner? I am considering getting a dedicated wheel cleaner, and I think this is what I am going to use.



    Talk me in or out of this product.



    Thanks!

    I used it a few years back, very good wheel cleaner. Lately I use PS1S Gel or Opt Power Clean.

    P21S has a lot of great reviews. Never used it myself... But seems to be good quality stuff. Griots is good stuff too. More economical than P21S, but from what I`ve read, nearly as effective too. I personally use Chemical Guy`s Stick Wheel Gel. I use it on moderately to severely dirty wheels/rims. On my regular clients, the wheels/rims are regularly maintained and I use the same soap I wash the rest of the vehicle with.

    BUY. It`s 90% of the P21S product at a fraction of the price.

    If it`s not strong enough for the application then it`s just not strong enough. But depending on that situation, you *might* be able to dilute it a bit and make it even more economical. That works OK for me on well-LSPed wheels...it`s

    a bit better than shampoo mix but not strong enough to strip the LSP right off.

    I hope you like it...I have it and it`s great. If you haven`t already I`d buy the gallon with the tap spout as the 35 oz bottle with the sprayer won`t last too long if you clean a bunch of cars.

    Even sometimes I, in a moment of what could only be described as pure sanity, question the rationality of this obsession.

    I like that it`s safe for all kinds of wheels. I wish it were a bit stronger, but with a little agitation, it will remove most anything.
