I've always heard good things about P21S wheel gel and finally decided to give it a shot. Wow, it surpassed my expectations. I was a bit concerned before using because it doesn't seem to really be a gel - but it clung to the wheel and ate through my BMW's brake dust. I ordered the larger refill the next week, it's that good.

This stuff works great. I have used all the other "big brand" wheel cleaners in retail and nothing is as safe and effective as P21s. It may be a little pricey, but you wont get angry when cleaning dirty wheels again.

This stuff is great. I've read about it on different forums and seen the before and afters. It is everything it was promised to be. My next purchase is the large size. I foresee using this product quite a bit. This is a must have in my detailing aresenal.

I absolutely love this product. I have found nothing better to remove brake dust and clean my rims. I strongly recommend to all my friends. You can see it working once you spray on and the dust melt off.

EXCELLENT! Works superbly well as described by everyone. Wheels look super clean. Followed up with Poor Boy's World Wheel Sealant (2 coats) and my BMW wheels just look amazing. Don't hesitate to try this product, but follow up with a wheel sealant so that P21s is not required everytime (becuase it's somewhat expensive)

used this stuff on my gfs mazda 3 that hasnt been properly washed in ages and had so much brake dust and all sorts of grime on the wheels that wouldnt come off with anything. used this waited 5-10 minutes wheels came out looking as clean as they did when received from the factory. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Only use it once every 4-5 car washes, but it's definitely a great product. Simply just sprayed on the wheels, then let sit for 5 minutes. Used a detail brush and sponge and wheels come out flawless.

Really like this product, takes the crime off really well. For the price I wish there was more product in the bottle.

Simply put: this is *still* the best wheel cleaner on the market in my opinion. How can something that works so well and so strong still be so safe for the most sensitive wheels? P21S has figured it out. Highly recommended.

The cleaning power of P21S is really something. Considering the amount of brake dust on the wheels after a summer of driving, this stuff cuts through it and removes it easily. It's definitely worthwhile to use on your wheels.

Great wheel cleanser. For the price, I don't use it all the time, but when a normal wash isn't getting all the brake dust off, I pull this off the shelf and it eats it away. I love that it's safe for all wheels too, no worries about acid. I let it dwell and then gave it a spray to watch it foam up. Quick agitation and it wipes all the dirt away clean.

So I got a chance to use this on aluminum wheels which hasn't been cleaned for almost a month. Pretty much the wheels were brown caked on from the brakes. I had to get this product from reading reviews. I sprayed it on let sit about 5-10 minutes man those wheels looked brand new again and having peace knowing that it will not damage the wheels either is a big A++. It's better to pay for this product than having to pay for somes rim that's been damaged.

I used on my two vehicles (Tacoma & 330i) that see decently frequent washing. I even occassionally try tried clean the barrels of the truck wheels when I would rotate the tires, but there was still plenty of build-up since the last wash and much longer since trying to clean the barrels.

With each vehicle, I sprayed on all wheels and let sit for about 15 minutes before starting on the first wheel. Using the supplied sponge and E-Z Mini Detail Brush, the wheels shined like new. The calipers actually looked metal again instead of "brake-dust black". I probably could have let it soak for longer to get the inside barrels perfectly clean, but they are probably 95% clean which is tons better than they were.

The only drawback is that I probably used half the bottle or a bit more on 2 vehicles, but I'm not toooo worried since I don't foresee needing to use this all the time.

It's an excellent product that cleans well, especially for neglected wheels, such as when I used to only clean the outer face of the wheels. This with the Mini detail brush are an awesome combo.

This is one of the best wheel cleaners I have ever used that is still safe to use! Not surprsing being from P21S.

Cleaned my rims with minimal effort, I will order again. Better than anything I have used in the past.

This stuff is expensive, but it works like people have written. The grime just flows off. Spray it on, let it dwell for a few minutes, rinse off. Perhaps a little agitation for really stubborn areas, but this stuff works better than anything I've ever tried.

This is the product to use. Pretty expensive and I won't use it at every wash but whenever I do a detail this is a much have product. I may try and dilute it a bit to see if I can stretch it a little. If dilution works I will use it every time I wash.

Great stuff, i bought this when i picked up my new BMW, after 3 days of ownership already the wheels were filthy, sprayed this on let it sit for a few minutes washed it off and lightly scrubbed with a sponge, and absolutely no problems, and the wheels were definately shinier then when i picked up the car!

Great stuff. I'd tried several sprays before that had an almost caustic edge to them. This stuff appears gentle, which I prefer around the kids, dogs and of course the wheels! Works great and will be the only cleaner I buy from now on!

Awesome stuff!! Definitely let it sit for two hours for heavily spoiled wheels.

Wow! I sprayed this on and just used a MF glove to wipe off the brake dust and this stuff will get off even the infamously stubborn BMW brake dust! I just ordered a large bottle for refilling.

I was blown away after letting this on my tires for about 20 mins. I rinsed the wheels and tires off and just saw the dirt and grim run right off.

I only let it sit for 15-20 mins and when i washed it off, the brake dust just melted, its an amazing sight to see! very safe on wheels too!

What else can I say...this product is the Gold Standard...do not buy anything else...only P21S gel for me

is there any other product to use on anodized lips? only wheel cleaner for my Volks...this stuff is great! gentle, but strong. bought a 2003 Passat wagon and got some new wheels. old wheels had never been cleaned behind the spokes or inner barrel. easily a 1/4 inch of brake dust and road crud had built up. sprayed these with P21S Gel and let sit for about 5 minutes. the gunk was literally melting off the inside/backside of the wheels. little agitation from a soft brush, washed and they looked almost new for 6 year old wheels. nice enough that instead of junking them I was able to sell them. highly recommended for those with German cars if you do not want to swap out your OEM brake pads to ceramics.

So far it is safe on polished and painted rims. No etching or dulling of the surface. The longer you leave it on the better it is at cleaning.

This stuff is awesome! I have polished Billet rims and have to be VERY careful what products I use on them. P21S Wheel Gel is strong enough to get them clean, but delicate enough to not haze or stain polished aluminum. This is now the only wheel cleaner in my cabinet.

Absolutely amazing product. Broke down, spent the money to try it, and this will be one that I will have a constant supply of. Works effortlessly.

This product lived up to all the great reviews. It easily ate through brake dust on my truck that probably have been building up since purchase in 2002. I highly recommend!!!

This stuffs cleans anything safely and easily. good to know its not acidic and will not harm my wheels finish. All i do is spray it on. While i wash the rest of my car, this stuff penetrates the brake dust and cleans everything. It's just a little expensive.

On expensive wheels this is all I use, I've never had and issue with it. While its not the strongest (is works quickly) I would not want to risk the possible damage. I used this on a vintage Ferrari with Borranis (50,000/wheel price tage) with no worries. I like the dwell time of hours on heavy soiled wheels.
pencilReviewed by Ivan on 7/16/2008

Not the strongest on the market but strong enough to SAFELY clean almost all wheels out there, no matter what the condition. Works great and can be diluted to last a while. Another good P21S product!

This stuff is great!

My wheels were pitted and stained w/ brake dust. Nothing I tried would get it off.

I sprayed the p21s on, let it sit for two hours, then almost all the dust and stains came off with a wipe of the sponge!

Unbelievable. I recommend this for anyone having troubles getting brake dust off.
