  • Restore a brilliant shine to all wheels by avoiding common mistakes! Sticky Citrus clings to wheels and vertical surfaces, suspending road grime, brake dust, oil, and dirt and then lifting it off the wheel safely and gently. Sticky Citrus sticks hard to keep the cleaning power where you need it, without rolling off the surface. Spray Sticky Citrus over filthy wheel parts, and watch as it sticks to the filthiest surfaces for a deeper clean using less product. All too often you clean your paint and glass, but forget about the most visible part: the tires! Total Extract Tire & Rubber Cleaner rapidly and effectively cleans, degreases, and removes the dirt, grime, and browning from your tires and rubber. Formulated with a specialty blend of hyper surfactants, cleaners and degreasers, Total Extract delivers a rapid fast-acting cleaner that works hard so you don’t. Dry your car in mere minutes with the ProBlow! It not only cuts your drying time in half, it’s also the safest and most fun way to dry. By using a super strong stream of air and not having anything actually make contact with the surface, you’re greatly reducing the risk of scratching that beautiful paint of yours! The ProBlow blows an ultra powerful jet stream of air to dry EVERY part of your ride.

    Very nice and thorough cleaning. I am new at this, so I have few dilemmas:
    1. If I am going to rub rims, could i just use car shampoo?
    2. Some people report that rim cleaners are too aggressive for breaks and discs. Corrosion, or some other unwanted effect, appears. What is the safest for breaks and discs? I assume ph-neutral car shampoo? Or maybe even regular soap?

    I’ve got moderately aggressive all terrain tires on my Jeep. They’ve got side lugs, raised letters and all sorts of texture to them. Applicators don’t get into all the cracks and crevices so I just take the sloppy route and spray tire shine on the surface then work it in the best I can.
    Is there a better method I’m missing?
    And, I’m fully aware the other Jeep owners are gonna come at me for using tire shine.
