Adam's Polishes Wheel & Tire Cleaner 16oz - Professional All in One Car Wash Wheel Well Cleaning Spray for Car Detailing | Safe On Most Rim Finishes

This gallon-sized bottle of Adam’s Wheel & Tire Cleaner is a detailing game-changer. I’ve been using it regularly on my daily driver, and it does an outstanding job of removing baked-on brake dust and stubborn brown tire bloom. It’s a non-acidic, high-foaming alkaline formula that works effectively on tires and a wide variety of wheel finishes—clear coat, powder coat, painted, chrome—you name it. Despite its power, it’s surprisingly safe on all factory surfaces. What I love most:•Works in full sun or shade, and I’ve used it even on a warm wheel—no staining when rinsed promptly .• High-sudsing formula makes brake dust dissolve quickly, leaving tires clean and wheels bare, perfect before applying any dressing . Pros:✅ Powerful yet non-acidic — safe for most wheel finishes✅ Cuts through oxidation, brake dust, and tire bloom✅ High-sudsing formula works in sun or shade✅ Refillable gallon size is economical Cons:⚠️ scent — expected with high alkalinity⚠️ Must rinse before it dries to avoid residue

You get what you pay for. Living on a dirt road, my wheels and tires get so dirty. I've tried other products but nothing cuts the dirt and brake dust like adams. I put this in a Zep spray bottle for easy use. Typically I will clean to wheels at once. You dont want to let this dry on the wheels as it will loose its effectiveness so doing 2 at once is perfect timing. Also, the white letters on my tires look brand new after use. I will use nothing else but Adams in the future, very effective!!I would say I got about 15 cleanings out if this one bottle. Great value for price.

Adam’s Wheel and Tire Cleaner sprays on evenly and produces a thick foam that clings well to wheel surfaces. I applied it generously, then used a soft-bristled brush to agitate stubborn brake dust and grime, which loosened quickly without excessive scrubbing. The foaming action helped lift dirt, making it easy to rinse away with minimal effort. It worked effectively on both painted and clear-coated wheels, leaving no sticky residue or discoloration behind. The formula feels balanced—strong enough to clean deeply, but gentle enough to trust on sensitive finishes. A reliable, professional-grade cleaner that simplifies wheel maintenance.

The sprayer ends up wasting most of the product in the areas between the rims. So you maybe wise to use a pump sprayer and cutting the mixture 50/50 with water and creating a foam. The product is just too expensive to use the sprayer it comes with that will waste more than half. You can’t just spray it on and hose it off. You need to clean using the appropriate brushes first to remove iron and the brake dust.Using Dawn with brushes first will remove most of the brake dust. Anything that is left behind will easily be removed using the wheel cleaner and save using so much product. You know wheels that are cleaned regularly uses less product and makes it much easier to keep the rims clean. I recommend buying the gallon size based on the price point. A two step cleaning process saves money and uses less product. I hate having to bend over using a small brush and recommend using a long handle medium to soft bristle brush. Your back will thank you 😊

This tire cleaner is an excellent product. When you spray it on your rims and tires and let it sit for a minute, it lifts all of the grime, dust and tire browning out of the tires and makes cleaning the tire a lot easier. This product does a really good job of removing prior tire dressings, road grime, and dirt from the tires if you were trying to prep the tire for a new tire dressing or some kind of coating. Don’t let the color of the product fool you. It may be purple, but it doesn’t smell like grapes. It has a real strong, pungent smell. I would recommend putting a mask over your nose or just covering your nose when spraying it on the tires. It’s not a pleasant smell, but it gets the job done. After using this product to clean the rims and the tires, you will notice that the tires are very bare, and the rims are very clean. This product is excellent for stripping off and removing everything that shouldn’t be there. I would recommend purchasing the gallon size and not the smaller size of this product. If you go for the small 16 ounce size by the time you spray all four of your tires on your vehicle and clean it you won’t have much left in the bottle. I just always purchased the gallon jug and dilute it down 50-50 so that way I can make it last longer. At that dilution ratio it still works very well.If you are looking for a tire cleaning product that will remove old tire dressings, dirt, grime, and anything else, then definitely purchase this product. It makes cleaning your tires, a much less labor-intensive job.
