Not a big fan of wheel cleaners Not really needed if you use something like Poorboys wheel sealant, Once used you will only need to shampoo them as normal

I can recommend Bilberry or Very Cherry if you need a dedicated wheel cleaner. Both acid free and work well diluted.

I used Billberry previously and acid based Megs Brightner.

Then I found Espuma Revolution and its all I use now... I think Billberry or Very Cherry are also good and so you wont have a problem with eithe of them.

As mentioned above once they are sealed with some good protection then they wont need cleaning with any cleaners, as will come off with a PW and a mitt with reg wash shampoo.

I am using Prime Strong to clean then curently have 845 on them (a liquid easier to apply than 476s or fk100p) either of those are equally good. When had the Scoobs I used to use PB wheel sealant, when it run out I just switched to above rather than buy another product. On the Evo's powder coated wheels I used Optimum Poli-seal followed by Optimum Opti-Seal. May get some more PB sealant next.

I think all are good, my money would be onPB Wheel sealant or alternatively 845/476... guess there are others bit cant comment as havent used them.
