Especially when they recommend full strength on wheels anyway... so a gallon of dedicated wheel cleaning super clean for $8-$10 or the 24oz-32oz of the other stuff?
Your also forgetting brake dust is metal and the Adams break it down from the formula you can’t see it when you use degreaser but it’s still there even tho it looks clean
What tools/products/things should I do next in this series?? Lemme know! 🙈 Things used: Adam’s Wheel Cleaner: amzn.to/2JRXNoQ Super Clean (APC): amzn.to/2to7R00 - Check locally Montana brush: Montana: amzn.to/2TV7uVQ Adam's 45 degree Wheel Woolie: amzn.to/2YEqEkQ Adam’s Short Wheel Brush: amzn.to/2waZt4S EZ Detail Brush Big: amzn.to/2LVeWAU
50/50 super clean will eat through pretty much anything. The stuff is great. I find myself blowing through wheel cleaners claiming to be better for 10x the cost and work just as well as super clean.
He double diluted when he sprayed water on the wheel, the surfactants now have to get thru the water first, but what do I know, I only sell carwash chemicals for a living...
Sorry to be so offtopic but does any of you know of a tool to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost the account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
@Genesis Carl i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out now. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Gonna use Canadian dollar prices for the comparison. Adam's Wheel Cleaner sells for 80$ in Canada, and Superclean sells for 25$ for the gallon. Would have been nice to see it used full strength since it already has a major price advantage on Adam's. In my experience, Superclean is not as good a cleaner as Meguiar's products. In order to get the same result I get from Meg's APC+ at 10:1. I need to use Superclean at 5:1. Still, the fact you can get it locally and sometimes on sale at 18$ per gallon makes it a good product to use. I think you would have gotten about the same result from Superclean as Adam's if you did not dilute it that much. Also you mention you use it 10:1, if you have to do the work twice to save a few pennies, is that really the best way? A quart of Superclean at 3:1 would cost you almost nothing in the USA. I have seen people say it sells for less than 10$ a gallon. So diluted 3:1 it would cost you less than 75 cents per quart... not worth doing the work twice to save on that.... at least for me.
everything he sells is rebadged items already on amazon, his ceramic coating on amazon is 10$, hes selling for 100$, then wants 1500$ to apply it at his shop, hes a total rip off to ppl who dont know about detailing. some all purpose cleaner in a $3zep bottle for $40 is insane. literally all his items are rebadged and overpriced
Think Both products do the same end result, as they do the same thing. I think what really makes a difference is the efforts of agitating ( you do good job) barrels are a must. The splattering does suck but that red brush @ 7:27 looks like less spatter than cone brush. True? Thanks for the videos
Super Clean themselves say to dilute 4:1 for wheel cleaning. Not seeing the point in 10:1, unless you're trying to demonstrate how weak and diluted the Adam's is.
Super clean dilution chart states to use at full strength for tires and wheel. Unfair comparison and even at 10 to 1 it still did not loose by much if you look at the results.
Okay but can we talk about superclean on aluminium? Specifically polished, doesnt it ruin it?? I'm not hating, I use superclean on every detail, my main product choice. But for wheels/engine bays this is where I'm afraid to use... What's your experience with this?
@@edwinfierros3324 not a professional like Cesar but I do like to detail and keep my cars clean. And you could always find information on the internet.
I would have to say the Adam's came out more of a foam where the super clean looks like you would have to give it a good soaking comes out more like a mist
I would rather use the Adam's Wheel Cleaner than Super Clean for the simple fact that you dont have to dilute something that is very strong and concentrated and risking of damaging someone's property.
How do you know that it wasn’t the different brushes that made the difference? When chemical testing you only allow one variable, the chemical. Otherwise you could’ve achieved those results for any number of reasons.
You did use better tools when it came to Adam's wheel cleaner compared to super cleans. Would of been better if you used the same tools to actually see the difference in the products
Awesome. Listen I think it would be important to dilute the products to a near close concentration. Super Clean has a caustic concentration of about 5% according to the SDS sheets. So diluting it 10:1, you have a super clean solution of about 0.5% caustic power. I do not know about the Adams but you said Adams was an APC? A degreaser and APC have different chemistries. Both perform fairly close but active ingredients are different and that is what makes it a degreaser or APC. So if Adams is an APC, then I do not think you are comparing apples to bananas. No good.
Handicapping super clean by factor of 10 right out the gate... not a fair comparison at all? It's like tying your feet together and your dominant hand behind your back and comparing how fast you can detail a vehicle compared to your partner who has both legs and hands free to work.
Super Clean diluted 10:1 while the Adams was full strength... yeah, that's fair.... retry it with Super Clean at full strength or maybe at 2:1 might have better results.
Super Clean is the best! It can clean anything. Kitchen dishes toilet bowl couch bsthtub car engine clothes stains dirty white shoes dirty walls name it! Anything dirty
i want to buy affordable products.but you have the dollar store where everything i assume cost a dollar and you have very expensive products. axample chemical guys has a wax cost 1000 dollars.am not joking.not ask you to buy that. but there is a wax from the dollar store or microfiber towels or foam cannon .and are products that you use .adam wheel cleaner super clean you have Meguiars wax and compare that to the from the dollar store see if cheap ones work as good or not as ones you use now
Dude...you just made a pointless video. Adam's full strength vs super clean 10:1...that's like having an eating contest with two people and one guy gets a full sized 18" pizza and the other gets two slices. Which one do you think will win? Gee I wonder 🤔😑😑😑
I find that you can get away with apc for a while but after some time more and more iron particles get stuck to the rim which the apc struggles to remove. At some point wheel acid or iron remover is needed to remove those imo. Looking forwards to the interesting series!
Comparing APCs to APCs or fallout removing wheel cleaners to other fallout removing wheel cleaners is a fair comparison, but APC vs fallout removing wheel cleaners or in this case, diluted APC vs full strength fallout removing wheel cleaner, is not a fair comparison. As the saying goes, it’s like comparing apples against oranges. Comparison testing is great as a concept but please make sure the methodology applied are fair, so your conclusions are not misleading.
Who uses Superclean at 10:1 for wheels though and why did you further dilute by rinsing the wheel 1st? If you use the proper dilution ratio for the job there is no need to rinse the wheel 1st and most detailers use 4:1 or 5:1 Superclean for wheels. I know you said not to get caught up about the ratio but nobody uses 10:1 on dirty wheels and further diluting it by rinsing introduces an unneeded variable. It's better to test a realistic ratio under proper conditions IMO. Still appreciate your videos though. The fact that you do it on typical customer vehicles and aren't a shill keeps me watching. I look forward to the future dilution ratio tests. I've not used the Adams stuff but Superclean is just as effective as Megs wheel brightener with the correct dilution for the job (at least in my world).
You're comparing an APC/Degreaser to a dedicated wheel cleaner with Iron removal. Comparing apples to oranges to me. The Super clean side will still have iron contaminants in the paint after all of this.
Detail Groove, keep up the videos man. I’ve learned a lot of good things from you and it’s taught me that it’s really not as hard as it’s set out to be. Other detailers are using multiple step processes and by watching you, you do it the way less difficult way and get similar results. I work at a Toyota dealership in Nebraska and work in the detail department only making 50$ per car while being as intricate as I see you. I know the time to money ratio is off but I always find myself trying to work for perfection and losing money per hour I’m spending on the same car. I apologize for the long comment but would you suggest anything that would help me out?
You can but It's mostly labeling. You can use Super Clean (or any APC) diluted 4:1 for wheels and tires, 10:1 for leather and cloth, and 1:1 for engine cleanings. Or you can purchase a dedicated wheel cleaner, dedicated tire cleaner, dedicated leather cleaner, dedicated cloth cleaner, etc... Which will cost a lot more
Detail Groove it might cost more on product up front but for the time it takes to dilute and the extra effort to scrub the wheels,seat, and carpets will make you lose money also. Buy the better products for the jobs and it will make more money in the long run. Once you remove most of the iron particles off the face and barrels of the wheels it will stay cleaner longer and easier to clean the next time.
Adams didn’t look that different when u can buy a gallon of super clean for 10$
SHAWNCEY #CantEven Absolutely agree. Especially if you’re doing multiple trashed vehicles a week. Splitting hairs with the comparison.
Exactly
Especially when they recommend full strength on wheels anyway... so a gallon of dedicated wheel cleaning super clean for $8-$10 or the 24oz-32oz of the other stuff?
Yup
Your also forgetting brake dust is metal and the Adams break it down from the formula you can’t see it when you use degreaser but it’s still there even tho it looks clean
Love this. However, on wheels I recommend a 50/50 dilution for the super clean. Both products are good, super clean @
Exactly!

You should sold out super clean.
This wasn’t a fair comparison. You should’ve done the Super Clean at 4:1. I’m sure the Adams is at full strength dilution.
He double diluted when he sprayed water on the wheel, the surfactants now have to get thru the water first, but what do I know, I only sell carwash chemicals for a living...

Super Clean, full strength
Adams wheel cleaner
I'd give it to super clean but I'd use it at 4-1
Okay I am down for this new series BUT the dilution rate should be followed per SuperClean chart to be fair.
Nothing will be perfect. That's why I'll be making more 😉
My vote is for Super Clean. I use it ALL THE TIME on tires when detailing!!
Please keep this series going. Seems like it’s going to be fun

Why is that?

Yeah u right i want to get into doing that..do you own a pressure washer?
make a video comparing adams wheel cleaner to meguiar's wheel cleaner
Is super clean safe to use on expensive aftermarket wheels?
Try Super Clean Aerosol can. Amazing on rims and tires. Foams much more, increasing dwell time. My go to cleaner, hands down !

I want to see you test spray 9 compared to super clean, 5-1 and 10-1 or both at 5-1
Super clean has a ph level of 12 full strength, for 10$ and you can diluted in different ways for different things I think it’s by far the winner
Not accurate info.... use both products undiluted then test... your results will be a lot different
You did use better tools when it came to Adam's wheel cleaner compared to super cleans. Would of been better if you used the same tools to actually see the difference in the products
Lol idk why he did that
What do you use to remove spray paint off paint
Clay mitt and lub.
Jay Mendez not over spray but like some vandalized the car
Sneaky guy...use a nylon bristle brush with the Super Cean and a brass brush with the Adams. Results are only slightly misleading.
4:1 would have been the same as adams
Could you review Poorboy’s World wheel cleaner please?
Awesome. Listen I think it would be important to dilute the products to a near close concentration. Super Clean has a caustic concentration of about 5% according to the SDS sheets.

100% Adams
Turns purple & actually removed the iron & brakes it down. But much more pricy
Put blue tape down the middle just to show us better and not mix them
I did not expect his last name to be GIl @ 1:13
Supa clean hijo
Can I get a free guide
Click link in bio
Dawn soap works great. $.99 at the dollar store
Do the best carwax pls
Adam's vs Megs D140
Super clean
Oh yeah I forgot about the yellow hugh on aluminum wheels and degreaser alone won’t brighten the wheel. Adams won!
They both get the job done!
I reckon adams
Super Clean diluted 10:1 while the Adams was full strength... yeah, that's fair.... retry it with Super Clean at full strength or maybe at 2:1 might have better results.
correct
For wheels like that I would use Super Clean.
Super Clean is the best! It can clean anything. Kitchen dishes toilet bowl couch bsthtub car engine clothes stains dirty white shoes dirty walls name it! Anything dirty

awwww.... I lost. :(
I think the tires were only 83% dry !!
Ahh, I think you're right!
@@DetailGroove , LMAO !
Think they will be the same
Why would you even bother comparing 10:1 super clean to adams wheel cleaner straight, pointless.
sorry

Interior dressing.

i want super clean to win but at 10:1 im guessing adams
The apc will get better results
It depends how often you clean your tires. I use meguiars APC and it didn't work on dirty tires. I had to use a degreaser (super clean)
Super clean 1 to 1 destroys adams full strength any day of the week never buying adama again. Super clean is $10 a gallon
Dude...you just made a pointless video. Adam's full strength vs super clean 10:1...that's like having an eating contest with two people and one guy gets a full sized 18" pizza and the other gets two slices. Which one do you think will win? Gee I wonder 🤔😑😑😑
87% lol

yeah most detailers use 4:1/5:1, that wheel 10:1 on this wheels is no no, its already cheap just use 4:1
No worries. That's why I'll be making more 😁
One question? Doesn’t super lean say to use it either apply it directly or a 4:1 application?
This test is apple and oranges 4:1 ratio superclean comparison would of made sense
Agreed. Next one :)
i mix super clena 4/1 with a little dish soap and i use a clorox foaming bottle so it clings and doesn't all just run away then agitate.
Nice tip! Happened to have a bottle of Foaming Clorox that i'll have to remember and save the empty bottle.
I used to pressure wash houses and that's what we did with the chlorine water and it works well
I use the foaming bottle from Maguires wheel cleaner, works great!

Use the Adams all purpose cleaner compared to super clean. Diluted equally and Adams will still shock people.

Why are you gagging
I was drinking water while talking the whole video
why dilute Super Clean on tires?. it's 8.98 per gallon .. whatever.. pffft Adams is nowhere near the full strength of Super clean.
You can’t cut one down to 10:1 and the other full strength... horrible comparison bro... I like your videos but damn this is awful lol
I seen that super clean at advance Auto was gonna buy it. Good review I'm get it next time 👍
Not a fair comparison Adam’s is full strength,SC IS 5to1
I thought the Adams wheel cleaner was only supposed to be used on the wheels. Isn't the tire and rubber cleaner designed to clean the tire?
You can but It's mostly labeling. You can use Super Clean (or any APC) diluted 4:1 for wheels and tires, 10:1 for leather and cloth, and 1:1 for engine cleanings.

I just use super clean 5-1 and then dawns 50% less scrub 1-1 and a iron remover
Why not use super clean more concentrated when you know the adams polishes wheel cleaner is meant to be used to clean wheels?
I mentioned it in the video like 3x lol
always compare products diluted equally for fair comparison
