Just be careful on aluminum:



Aluminum - Is it safe to use Simple Green on aluminum?

Simple Green products have been successfully and safely used on aircraft, automotive, industrial and consumer aluminum items for over 20 years. However, caution and common sense must be used: Aluminum is a soft metal that easily corrodes with unprotected exposure to water. The aqueous-base and alkalinity of Simple Green or Crystal Simple Green can accelerate the corrosion process. Therefore, contact times of All-Purpose Simple Green and Crystal Simple Green with unprotected or unpainted aluminum surfaces should be kept as brief as the job will allow - never for more than 10 minutes. Large cleaning jobs should be conducted in smaller-area stages to achieve lower contact time. Rinsing after cleaning should always be extremely thorough - paying special attention to flush out cracks and crevices to remove all Simple Green/Crystal Simple Green residues. Unfinished, uncoated or unpainted aluminum cleaned with Simple Green products should receive some sort of protectant after cleaning to prevent oxidation.





I use full strength SG on my uncoated polished aluminum rims once a week. Nothing to worry about with SG.

cool I was looking for something OTC for wheel wells



Im looking for something good to coat the wheel wells aside from cleaning. I figure the simple green would clean them well, but I want that shine too, so perhaps I can try that tire dressing instead. Seems like a waste, but oh well.
 
Uh, wash your wells with SG and then use the tire shine.



I always cleaned wheel wells with SG and then i use the cheapest tire foam (i try to buy ones that have some cleaning action also) i can find on the shelf. Wham bam done
