Bilt HamberBH-AW1 Auto Wheel Cleaner,1 Litre

It's true! This stuff is magic. Spray it on, wait 5 minutes and hose it off. No brushing or scrubbing. Not the cheapest but it really is the best,!

Brilliant, smells unique but cleans the brake dust etc off wheels perfectly, very satisfying.

Bought this over another well known brand (Meguiars) because it was cheaper for a one litre bottle than theirs was for 750ml. I'd read good reviews of both but this seemed to have better reviews and was better value.It was really easy to use. I probably didn't need to agitate the product on the wheels but I did anyway with a soft brush (I've had to use a stiff brush previously with other products) and rinsed off after less than 2 minutes. Great result...all brake residue, grease and other crap has gone. Under 15 minutes for 4 wheels including application and rinsing off. I rinsed off with a watering can which worked fine but as the product had started to dry slightly I'd have been better off with a hose or pressure washer which is what I'll do next time. Only downside is that I can now see all the tar spots on the rims which had been hidden by the brake residue....now I need to ransack my garage to find the tar spot remover!The smell of this type to product seems to be an issue for some buyers...some smell of rotten eggs. This definitely has a chemical smell but seems to have some sort of fruit smell added which isn't unpleasant....dont get me wrong..I'd not want it in the house but using this outside is fine.Overall I'm very happy and a litre bottle will last me for ages.Note: if you have wheel stud caps remove them before using this product....it will discolour them....only takes a minute and will save time in the long run as you wont have to find the trim restorer to apply to them when they have turned milky white.!

My allows were in dire need of restoration. I had neglected to clean them over many years and they were caked in brake dust and grime.The week before I purchased Wonder Wheels Super Alloy Wheel Cleaner which was rubbish. It made no difference to my wheels and would not eat into the brake dust.I decided to give Bilt Hamber Auto Wheel Cleaner a go. I liberally sprayed the cleaner onto the wheels and left for a few minutes. The cleaner started to react with the dirt, changing the colour to purple. It was a very messy job agitating with a stiff alloy wheel brush. It had definitely started to shift the first and I could start to see the brake dust on the wheels softening. I also used a plastic orange spudger trim tool to gently scrape and shift the softening brake dust in the corners that the wheel brush couldn't shift.I gave the wheels a rinse and they certainly looked better. They still had a lot of brake dust on them which I couldn't see under the mix of cleaner and brake dust sludge. So after the rinse, gave them another coating of the cleaner, left for a bit and then went at them again with the brush and spudger tool.After about 5 hours of cleaning, scrubbing, scraping, rinsing the wheels looked great. They still had a little bit of brake dust on the inner rims which I will tackle at a later date as the daylight was fading.I did go through quite a lot of the Bilt Hamber Auto Wheel Cleaner, probably 3/4 of the bottle but Im hoping now with the heavy stuff removed I can use the rest sparingly.The smell of the Bilt Hamber Auto Wheel Cleaner is quite a strong fruity fragrance which is quite pleasant but does hang around. For days and days I could smell this mixed in with a metallic brake dust smell.Overall I am mightily impressed with the Bilt Hamber Auto Wheel Cleaner. As long as you are prepared to spend a lot of time and elbow grease the cleaner does give good results.

I decided to clean my alloys that had not cleaned properly for maybe 2 years due to illness. I sprayed this product iaw the instructions and allowed it a few minutes to work on the dirt. The wheels duly turned a deep red from being a nasty brown colour and it was clear the stuff was working. I then hosed down the wheels with a jet and *********!!!!!!!!!!! WOW !!!!!!!!!!********, the rear wheels were bright and shiny and 90% of the dirt washed off the front wheels. I left the car about 15 minutes in the sun (Yes the Sun, bit of a novelty I know this year) to dry and repeated the process. The remainder of the dirt just washed away with no scrubbing or polishing. Absolutely amazing stuff and worth every penny of the extra cash.

Ordered this as 1 of wheel cleaner, foam cannon, wash mit, drying towel and polar wash foam. All excellent quality and value.Decided to get modern and move on from bucket of soapy water, hose and a wash leather !For use with my Karcher k7.I had used other wheel cleaners before, various from Halfords etc.Having read reviews decided to go for what by consensus is the best, but definitely far from the cheapest.Seems to be an I K Brunel product - "not the cheapest, but the best".My car has red brake cylinders inside the wheels. They are now all red again for 1st time in a year.Slight concern over contact with plastic parts warning. Hope not to have to alter rating if wheel centers (which I am avoiding spraying) get damaged ?

This is a miracle product . Spray it on , wait for 30 seconds until the product stop turning red and then wash off . Result; Spotless alloy wheel underneath.
