SONAX Wheel Cleaner Full Effect (230200) | Non-Acid Rim Cleaner | Color Changing Wheel Cleaner | Brake Dust Cleaner | Non-Acid Iron Remover | (500 ml or 16.9 fl. oz.)

Owning a Porsche, BMW and Volvo Polestar has been a challenge for a OCD afflicted owner. Brake dust seems ot be in European car manufacturers DNA. Ceramic coating is ineffective, you are in a battle to constantly get as much off as possible with the least amount of contact with the wheels ot prevent scratching and damage, I have used SONAX products for a decade and found them to be effective and as described. Now let's get this out of the way, this stuff STINKS. If stink level was the parameter to effectiveness there is a reason why your wheels get clean. After spraying on I usually leave on for 5 minutes until it has turned completely purple and will rinse and use very little agitation to get the wheels very clean. The G89 M3 has these very complicated wheels that if I did not have the SONAX I would spend 2 hours on wheels alone. The Porsche wheels are a little better and the Volvo wheels are just a nightmare because there is little room for your hand. Again the SONAX helps with that by spraying in the small gap between wheel and caliper.

This is by far the best wheel cleaner I've ever used. I've used both Meguiar's, Mother's and Chemical Guys. They all worked decently, I tend to prefer the Meguiar's Hot Rims over the rest; however it doesn't come close to how well this works. With 4 piston brembo calipers and hawk hps pads, my Evo's brakes spew out a TON of dust onto my wheels. It's a constant battle to keep them somewhat clean. If I let it sit on there too long and gather more road gunk, it was impossible to get off with Meguiar's (or anything else) alone, and would require scrubbing (sometimes with a harsh/dangerously hard bristled) brush. Not anymore! This cuts through caked on rims even after a couple months of horrible neglect. You might need to use two passes with it, depending how hard caked the gunk is. My advise is: -First spray the wheels with my meguiars soap and pressure wash them to get off as much as possible before applying this. -If you have a light cleaning (usually less then a couple weeks for my car), then you can get by with spraying two rims at a time. If you're going to have to scrub some of the gunked on mess it's probably best to do one rim at a time. Spray your rim(s) generously getting in your inner rim if possible, your lug nuts, etc. -The liquid will come out kind of greenish and then turn an orangish/redish as it breaks down brake dust. It has a very strong (like cat urine) odor that you just have to get used to. -Let it sit on there for a couple of minutes (usually don't want more then 5). You don't want it to dry on the rim, although having accidentally done this - it washed off no problem. -If it's a light cleaning you can probably get by with just pressure washing it clean at this point, although to make sure you get all parts of the rims I usually go over it with Griot's Garage 15704 Micro Fiber Wheel Wand, (Pack of 2) . If the caked on mess requires harder scrubbing I'd recommend something like autogeek's "speed master wheel brush". This bottle usually last about 16 individual wheel cleanings. It makes it the most expensive option out there, but by far the best and safest! It is acid free and ph balanced, and is specifically designed to be safe on all rims. I use this on BBS, Enkei, and WedsSports rims that cost over 1000-1500/per, all the time. I have no worry that this can in any way danger them. A lot of other products out there can be a hit or miss, and especially if you have refinished rims it can be very risky. My BBS are refinished and so far this has not worn it off or damaged them whatsoever. If you're looking for a bit cheaper solution, there's Sonax 230500 Yellow Wheel Cleaner to use as a refill. You can also checkout autogeek, depending on their sales, coupon codes, and shipping situation - you can usually find a better deal there.

Worked pretty well to remove brake dust and built up grime on my girlfriend's alloy, clear-coated wheels on her 2012 Fusion. These had been pretty well neglected by the two of us for about 60,000 miles. Aside from regular car washes, they hadn't had any special attention for cleaning or waxing/sealing, so they had some minor pitting going on in the corners where the build-up was the worst. It didn't completely take care of everything, but I think the wheels were past the "just clean 'em up" phase and need some sanding, etc. It got rid of the majority of the brake dust and yellow/brown haze on the wheels, leaving behind some of that in the pits in the corners of the spokes, which almost just highlights those trouble areas. The clear coat is scratched and looks like it's coming up on a few spots, so I'll end up having to have those repaired to get them back to normal. My painted, machined face, clear-coated wheels, though, with about 20,000 miles on them, regular washes, never waxed/sealed to my knowledge, came out pretty nice. Had a slight build-up on them in the corners, but as advertised, that stuff goes from neon yellow to red/dark brown as it works, and you can just rinse it off. I opted for a soft-bristled wheel brush to agitate it a bit more, and I felt like I had to use a lot of product to keep all of the wheels wet while I worked on them. Unfortunately I had to take care of them at a local car wash with a $3.50 minimum to activate the hose, so I tried to tackle all 4 wheels at once, which wasn't easy. It takes some time for this Full Effect to start working and if it's breezy out, it can dry up sort of fast. Still, it did a pretty good job. I also bought some Sonax Wheel Cleaner Plus, which worked much faster, and seemed to work a lot better, on my mom's Mazda 6 wheels. She was amazed with the results, and so was I. I'll need to find a small wheel woolie or something to use to attack the corners of the spokes a little better on all of them next time, but other than that, I definitely recommend this. The Sonax WC Plus is probably my go-to for the future, but this also works pretty well.

Usuario consumado de productos sonax, la verdad lo agarré en oferta y vale muchisimo la pena

It made my 666M wheels look superb, they stayed decent looking for around 1 month. I also used a wheel protector and wheel slik products, once the wheel dried after sonax use.

Servicio de envío muy bueno al igual que el producto todo excelente y muy recimendado

This product works great. 1. Wash the rims with water (I used warm water) 2. Apply the Sonax and let it stay 3-5 min. Make sure you spray just a bit. Don’t wash them with Sonax :D 3. Rinse it just a bit with water 4. Use a drill brush to wash the rims (https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07PKSX3RW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) 5. Rinse with water My rims look like brand new in the end. Highly recommended.
