    How do you guys feel with using a garden sprayer to rinse an all wheel cleaner from the wheels? Would that be totally unsafe? To really clean a wheel without using a wheel cleaner, I guess I`d have to hand polish.



    How about to rinse degreaser from an engine? It would be nice to be completely non-dependent on a pressure washer and just use ONR.

    Sorry for the late response--and thanks for the response. By garden sprayer, I mean like a vegetable sprayer. The pump kind that can hold about 2-3 gallons of water.



    I`m wondering if it will provide enough rinsing power to remove the alkaline all wheel cleaner or if anybody thinks that it might be unsafe.



    As for engines that are mostly clean (I think caked would be really tough with the garden sprayer) I was wondering if it would be sufficient to remove a light spraying of an engine cleaner/degreaser.



    Thanks again.

    i dont think you will get enough volume to completely rinse off/dilite the wheel claener. I would use Eagle 1 AZ and rinse with a low pressure hose.



    the insecticide/garden sprayer will work OK for the engine bay since you are using something much milder like soap/water solution or diluted simple green
