Diablo Brake Dust & Wheel Cleaner Spray for Rims, 2 x 16 oz | pH-balanced spray lifts brake dust and road grime from wheels, rims and tires, safe on all wheel finishes

Hello, I'm writing today for this Diablo wheel and tire cleaner. After reading a bunch of reviews, I decided to purchase and try this. I have always used Chemical Guys Tire shine and water proofer. The solution comes out either in a spray or stream. The spray consistency wasn't good. Till after I read the directions. As per directions, you are supposed to shake well before use. I did not do that on the first wheel I Cleaned. The smell is like original classic bubble gum. I haven't deep cleaned my rims in a long time and this product cleaned them very well. Easy to use , only need a little scrubbing. They are a lot more clean and shiney then when I used other products. With minimal scrubbing they cleaned up surprisingly well. I am happy with this product and the 2 pack bundle was a good value. As usual, Chemical guys have come thru with another great product!!

GREAT STUFF. REALLY CLEANED WHEELS WELL. TIRES, EHH!. I HAD TIRE SHINE ON THE TIRES AND IT DIDN'T REMOVE THE COATING. I GUESS IF YOU DON'T TREAT YOUR TIRES THIS WOULD WORK WELL. BLEACH WHITE WOULD BE BEST TO REMOVE TIRE TRATMENTS/TIRE SHINE. OVERALL DOES WHAT IT SAYS ON WHEELS. JUST A LITTLE PRICEY. I USED 2/3 OF ONE OF THE BOTTLES TO DO 8 WHEELS.

Im not too sure about how it will clean up really dirty wheels without scrubbing but I do know it helped make some very beat offroad competition tires really clean and black. Not perfect but much better than regular soaps. And the smells are enjoyable!

I’ve been using the Chemical Guys CLD_998_1602 Sprayable Diablo Wheel Cleaner (16 oz, 2-pack) for about six months on my truck’s rims, and it’s a decent choice for regular maintenance. The pH-balanced, non-caustic formula is safe for all wheel finishes, including my polished aluminum rims, and the oxygen-infused foam lifts brake dust and road grime effectively with minimal scrubbing. I spray it on, let it sit for a minute, and use a soft wheel brush—black water from brake dust just pours off, leaving a clean, shiny finish. The foaming action helps it cling to the rims, and the slick lubricants prevent scratching when brushing, which is great for weekly washes. Diluting it 4:1 (4 parts water to 1 part cleaner) stretches the 16 oz bottle, making it cost-effective at around $20-$25 for the pair. The pleasant citrus scent is a nice bonus over harsher chemical smells. However, it’s not a magic bullet. For heavily soiled rims with caked-on brake dust, it requires some elbow grease and a good brush, as some Amazon and Walmart reviews note—it won’t just rinse off with water alone. The spray nozzle can be inconsistent, sometimes streaming instead of misting, which makes even application tricky and can lead to product waste. I’ve also noticed that diluting it too much (beyond 4:1) reduces its cleaning power, as one reviewer mentioned, so I stick to the recommended ratio or use it full strength for tougher jobs. It’s not as potent as some acid-based cleaners, but that’s the trade-off for a safer, gentler formula. For routine cleaning, it’s reliable and beginner-friendly, but for stubborn grime, you might need a stronger gel-based cleaner or extra scrubbing.

Perfect for the guy who washes car regularly and won't etch the metal or harm paint or clearcoat. The acid cleaners work for heavily eroded wheels but not for weekly cleaning.

I bought this because I liked their upholstery cleaner. While it smells good, the product comes out in spurts instead of spray or a stream. Couldn't get it to spray or have a solid stream after shaking, it foamed up too much and then sprayed worse. All of their products have a poor nozzles on them for some reason. This product offered nothing better than plain soap and didn't remove anything easier or quicker. I id each wheel two times with a drill and then by hand, I should have just used car wash soap. Had to wash afterwards to remove some residue left on my black rims. Overall it doesn't do anything to justify the price, and honestly makes the job a little more difficult.

Does a great job getting brake dust and grime off the wheels.

Not as strong as I thought but when scrubbing it with blue pad it does help but my rims were neglected for a while so not sure is 3 stars is appropriate.

Unico que detalle que se venia derramando el liquido. Ocupa un mejor empaquetado para el envio. Todo lo demas con la calidad excelente.

Es un excelente producto, tiene un aroma agradable y limpia muy bien las superficies para las que fue diseñado.
