I have tried a few things and most of the crap has come off apart from the real nitty gritty dirt

What is the strongest alloy cleaner out there and best brush for the job? And where can i purchase the stuff from

Thanks

wonder wheels from halfords is VERY strong but can damage your wheels if you dont use a bit of common sense when using it.

i still think once you have used wonderwheels you wheels never look the saem again. no matter how much contact time is used.

ive used wonder wheels many times without any problems. just need to get it on, agitate and get it off again as quickly as possible. as long as you dont leave it on too long or let it dry then you wont have any problems.

bilbery is by far better can dilute 1:1 all the way up to 1:10 and it still gets the dust off even carbon pad dust!

i use autoglym clean wheels. tar remover and polish on the wheels alot easier to clean them off the car for some unknown reason

next time buy a better wheel cleaner, walk past that section of halfords and go straight to the auto glym section. More monies but better shizz.

Or get the meguiar's one, heard good thangs.

As it turns out i wasn't in halfords, i was picking up stuff to service the car... thought iwould try :)

auto glym, bilberry. Worth a try and if all else fails a refurb it is.

pointless trying bilberry if wonder wheels isn't doing the job. the autoglym clean wheels is quite a strong cleaner.... but tbh wonder wheels is stronger in my experience.

what kind of brush are you using?

Autosmart retardis is also awesome for taking off those good ole' stubborn skidmarks.

tardis works great on tar... but not brake dust

i used auto gleam wheel seal, for some reason it shifted the stains on my wheels that no other cleaner would including bilberry and just plain brick acid.
god knows why it cleans them off so well but i'm sticking with it

If your wheels are very dirty (a lot of brake dust cooked) and that Bilberry, Megs Wheel Brightner, clay bar don't works,

You can use this product: http://www.shine-on-wheels.com/shop/lavage/173-cartec-jante.html

This is a very strong product, but they are very aggressive ;)
It is dangerous for your lung :boxing:
