Plenty of better and cheaper products than Bowdens. Car care products online is where I get everything. In a hurry I go to waxit in tullamarine. Forget over the counter crap.

Actually, you'll find that wheely clean comes in cheaper than most other ferrous dissolvers on the market and performs right up there with the best of them. I'm with you on avoiding most OTC junk but, truth be told, most bowden's gear doesn't fit into that category. More like they are ALSO sold OTC. I certainly don't like everything in the range, but some select products are excellent and every bit as good as boutique products. That's not to say for an instant that you shouldn't shop at the detailing boutique stores, like Detail Central, ZAS, Waxit, CCP, etc - I back them 100% and order through them and they have a huge range of products that will largely out-perform most of what you can buy in auto stores. Long and short of it is that I wouldn't use the products if they didn't work and if I didn't find them to help with my profitability.
As with anything, I'm not suggesting anyone take my word for it - best to form your own opinions
I bought and used the wheely cleaner today on my 20" super sports. It is pretty good, but dont expect it to replace a good clean with a brush and so on.
Its not just spray and rinse, especially on white wheels.
I have large brakes and rotors and brake dust is a pain in the arse.
I recon if you buy the Wheel Woolies, it would be money well spent and a better job.
I give this thread 10/10 for content and info.
One day ill have tinsnips come detail my car I hope.
Any wheel cleaner will be more effective with some agitation and brush work - that's just the nature of things. Aside from trade wheel acid, there's not much out there that is a truly spray and rinse type product - and even then, acid will still need to be worked if the wheels are feral.
I'd be happy to do it!
