How to: Wheel Clean Guide

[nfbr]

- Start with one dirty wheel

- Then prepare yourself with the following items

Newspaper for when the wheel is face down

Wheel cleaner

Tyre cleaner

Bodywork / Wheel wax

2x Jugs of water

Wheel cleaning brush

Old towel

Some cloth or bits of old t-shirts

Can of your favourite drink

Now you will need to jack your car up and remove the wheel

Start with the inside of the wheel

Spray the wheel with wheel cleaner

Then work the wheel cleaner in with a brush

When you've fully brushed the entire wheel rinse the wheel off and do the same to the outside (face) of the wheel

Once again rinse it all off and dry with a towel

Now that the wheel is towel dried, Get your wax out and cover the wheel with a light but not shy coat of wax and work it in with a cloth or bit of old t-shirt in circular motions

Next you will need a new bit of t-shirt, once the wax has dried to a hazy finish to polish the wax off

And their you have it, One super clean wheel

A quick note, If you have split rims, diamond cut, chrome or polished wheels... avoid use of wheel cleaning products, Instead use hot soapy water and a bit of elbow grease
