WheelX is a cleaner that was desired by professionals and enthusiasts who use CARPRO products. Specific cleaner to remove dirt from rims.
From the beginning, the primary cleaners used for cleaning rims or wheels were IronX and IronX Snow Soap . These two products are very effective at removing iron or ferrous particles that have accumulated on paint and rims.
In the case of rims, one of the main sources of dirt is the dust released by the brake system. Since they are mostly metallic, products like IronX are widely used to clean rims. In practice, it's excellent when they're heavily soiled with this type of brake dust, but since there are other types of dirt as well, you end up using a lot of IronX , and the process isn't cost-effective or very efficient.
This is why WheelX was created: to effortlessly remove the dirt that builds up on rims. In many cases, all you need is a pressure hose.
- low pH, "a little acidic"
- Safe for painted rims, powder coat, and chrome
- insurance for rims protected with CARPRO coatings
