What do you use to clean your alloys?

I'm wondering if there is anything out there that I can simply spray on, leave for a few minutes, then jet wash off, rather than mess about wiping, brushing etc.

What do you guys use?

Car Pro IronX is pretty decent and its non acid based.

Bilberry wheel cleaner is also non acid based, but needs some brush work.

Steer clear of abrasive acid based cleaners like wonder wheels.

I've tried Purple Rain on mine, it cleans the iron deposits but not brake dust so pretty pointless imo.

Right pain cleaning BBS alloys, I've now moved from using a mitt to a sponge brush thing with a microfibre pad on it.

I use Autoglym perfect wheels kit, comes up with a brilliant finish on my black alloys :)

Once cleaned and de tarred and clayed I seal men with a dedicated wheel sealant, the next time you clean them you will need absolute minimal effort.

Just seal them every now and again as needed

Cheers fellas.

I currently use autoglym non acidic wheel cleaner. It's ok but needs agitating before spraying off and I'm looking for less effort...................
I wax them now and then which helps. Come to think of it I have some supaguard wheel stuff somewhere.............
