Not technically a review but didn`t know where to put this. Just wanted to share this story in case it helps anyone deal with annoying wheel cleaning duties.
----
Last summer I bought 20x9 and 20x10 gloss black hellcat replica wheels.
I never realized how big of a pain they would be.
I initially put permanon platinum on them and didn`t really like it so when hydro2lite came out I gave it a shot.
I reapply it about once every 6 weeks.
Sometimes I wipe the wheels down with Prima Hydro after drying them. (More on that later) or spray and gloss.
In a pinch one day I took a bottle of spray and rinse 1:1 i had made previously and used it in the same manner as directed on the bottle.
It worked so well I use it almost every time. Sometimes I`ll admit I just feel in the mood to use my boars hair brushes.
I went to clean my wheels this evening and thought I`d use the chance to post about this product and show another video of the air force blaster in action...
So here are the wheels, not terrible but dirtier than they`ve been in months. Car had to drive home in rain earlier this week (and got way less dirty than I was anticipating btw).
soak (2mins) then rinse, touchless
air dried
Index finger swiped on barrel, middle finger on spoke
Clean? You be the judge.
Another wheel (this one on passenger front) i will do as before after...

That`s it, method works great for me and doesn`t compromise the hydro2lite as far as I have seen. If the wheels are real dirty I do S&R at full strength or just normal wash the wheels then reup on the hydro2lite (which this scenario doesn`t come up much at all actually)
Thanks for viewing
I will also say I have next to no brake dust issues and I drive my car like I stole it, every time.
