I got a Mr clean duster for 5 bucks at big lots that is exactly like the wooly wormit. Been cleaning my rims and barrel for 2 years with it. Bought 3 more for backup
all my brushes were custom made and fabricated by me, handles i bought at a local Grainger but you need to machine the ends to fit and its not something DIY can do.
Man love that idea for the woolly wormit. Saw it before from Pan''s video and really disliked the idea of getting my hands wet and contact with the wheel cleaners and here you come with a great solution for it! +10likes
Question...My American Force wheels on my truck have a few faint scratches from improper cleaning (bad detailer). What is the best way to polish the scratched out? My wheels are black.
What kind of jack did you use to lift the car? I need to go around the car and pull and put back on one wheel at a time. I have heard the Quik Jack is a real failure.
What tricks do you have for multi-piece wheels that have flares on the barrel and the joint that the spokes of the wheel bolt/weld to, that make accessing the whole barrel difficult?
use the wheel woolie, get a heat gun and manipulate the arm to work for your rims, i do it all the time for my custom Forgeline 3 piece wheels on my pro touring Mustang

Any tips for protecting a new set of powder coated wheels? I'm planning on getting a set of vorsteiner vff 107's for my summer wheels and having them powder coated. I'm in Washington and drive 600-700 miles a week in mixed traffic, so they'll see plenty of brake dust & road grime.
yes from my shop but it was a PITA to cast it to the brush because of the tang being so small but i made it work with some reengineering of the brush body
@@autofanaticcars I do like the looks of the wormit. I'm a Design Engineer and have access to a 3d printer i could probably print out a handle. i sent you an email to your yahoo account, i printed a holder for my MTM foam cannon, thing is always falling over.....
hey af whats up man i just bought ur wheel foam and 007 gloss shine also ik9 foamer i gotta a question how much wheel cleaner do u put in the ik9 foamer to water
try contacting the manufacture direct, Amazon sold hundreds off my video i guess they are waiting for new stock to come in which will eventually happen
i blow them dry for the most part it is the water that runs from the rotor vanes after your finished with the wash that ruins the wheels so you must give it time to drip then clean the barrels as i show if you blow dirty water your causing more of a mess on gloss black
I have a black GT350 and my son has a Magnetic. The car looks great in either color. Mine underwent 6 hours of paint correction followed by Modesta coating. After three years it looks better than new.
Thanks for the video. I just recently got a bunch of detailing products (almost got the woolie wormit). I too have black wheels that came on my Type R. They are sooo hard to keep clean. These tips should help. What do you protect the wheels with? I recently got some Wheel Guard Max Coat and Wheel Guard Wax from CG but am now thinking that won't repel the dust too well.
@@autofanaticcars Does it help repel the dust? I have some ArmorAll Brake Repellent spray but I think it leaves a light blue colored residue on the wheels. It can easily be wiped off though. The spray did seem to help keep the dust from sticking.
I just bought my BMW 430i and want to keep my wheels in prestine condition. I am interested in the woollywormit but prefer one with a handle. How do I either purchase one from you or how do I add one to my future woolly?
Hi i made 30 of these a while back it is just too much fabrication work to keep doing them. you should pick up the brush and try it as it comes, adding a handle is not that easy
Great vid, I'm definitely getting one of the Wooly Wormit brushes. Anything that makes cleaning wheels easier for me is a no brainer, I hate cleaning wheels so the better I get at it and the easier it is the less I hate it! I already rinse with DI water and I can see me going down the route of blow drying too now I'm getting older, it just saves my poor old knees and shoulders 👍
it was a PITA to do what I did not sure what i would even charge to do these for you guys. I am working on a bunch of cool handles for wheel brushes as we speak il be showing the finished designs soon in a full video and offer them in the web store
13 minutes of talking about brushes and not a single wheel was cleaned. a little montage or a 2 minute clip would have been good to break up the video a little.
plenty of wheel cleaning videos on my channel this was to discuss some ways to dry and ensure proper flawless finishes and show the modified tools i use and ones i do not suggest using.
Ugh I really need to get into DIY car cleaning. And buy ur wheel cleaner, it seems so fun. But I'm a lazy and brokecollege student. Soon enough I'll become a weekend warrior.
Hey af my man wow i just received the 007 gloss spray holy shit my man you fucking nailed it my white jeep overland looks outstanding ive used bead maker,v07,gtechniqe and let me tell you nothing can evwn compare wow and the windows holy come out streak free same with my black polished wheels this shit is just a life saver man just thought id tell ya great product and thank u for making it!!!!
its a good brush but i just do not trust it on gloss black if you are as much as a "fanatic" as i am plus getting hit in the face and arms sucks using it.
How do you clean the inner fender wells?
In my opinion, this guy is the best on UA-cam for automotive content!
thanks for the support Tino.
is there a Video about modifying the handle of the Whoollywormit? Or can i buy a modified one anyhow?
I was modifying them but its way too much time. I seem modified brushed in my web shop, www.auto-fanatic.com
How did u modify the woolywormit
was not easy il tell you that
I got a Mr clean duster for 5 bucks at big lots that is exactly like the wooly wormit. Been cleaning my rims and barrel for 2 years with it. Bought 3 more for backup
You can also dry the wheels using a leaf blower...and if the wheels are waxed or coated it'll make the job even easier.
is the black rim is prone in scratches
Yes just like a black car
What about using absorbers on wheels for drying them do they scratch the wheel surface
Where can we buy the orange handle you put on the Wheel Woolies brush?
all my brushes were custom made and fabricated by me, handles i bought at a local Grainger but you need to machine the ends to fit and its not something DIY can do.
Will you fabricate a bunch and sell them to your adoring fans?
Man love that idea for the woolly wormit. Saw it before from Pan''s video and really disliked the idea of getting my hands wet and contact with the wheel cleaners and here you come with a great solution for it! +10likes
stay tuned to my Instagram i am going to be offering these modified in my web shop soon still working on a few ideas now
Question...My American Force wheels on my truck have a few faint scratches from improper cleaning (bad detailer). What is the best way to polish the scratched out? My wheels are black.
Think you’ll sell modded Wooly Wormit brushes on your site?
most likely yes once i come up with a few more ways to do them and see what makes the most sense.
Auto Fanatic I would love to buy that and the wheel woolie with the handle!
Man I love the new brush but stopped using because the lug nut is not a good enough handle. How did you modify the handle? Thanks
ever find out?
Where did you get the handle for the wheel woolie?
Grainger but they are not easy to fabricate yourself.
Do you use something to prevent the rust in the rotors after washing the wheels?
yeah i drive it after im done
Auto Fanatic thanks
Love the channel man! Just took all my rims off on my GT350 and cleaned the barrels. Love it! the wheels, brake calipers and rotors look outstanding!

How about touching up glass black rims that rubbed up against a cement curb?
thats easy i have fixed many customers cars using Spies Hecker 2K paint and my Iwata Airbrushes. next time i get to do one il shoot a video on this.

Thanks for this! My wheels are fast rennens black. A lot of tight spots to get into. Trying to decide which one to buy. Have you tried adams polishes wheel brushes?
I need a new brush,my ez detail brush is a bit annoying. But it does fit, in between the big brakes and drum. What do you recommend?
get the woolly wormit brush
What ceramic coating would you use on gloss black wheels?
none i do not use those coatings on my paint or wheels but plan to try some soon

you can apply a coating to the wheels from Gyeo or C quartz to help
I like your use of the file handle on the wormit
yes from my shop but it was a PITA to cast it to the brush because of the tang being so small but i made it work with some reengineering of the brush body
@@autofanaticcars Gotcha, the one that comes with it looks silly....
@@autofanaticcars I do like the looks of the wormit. I'm a Design Engineer and have access to a 3d printer i could probably print out a handle. i sent you an email to your yahoo account, i printed a holder for my MTM foam cannon, thing is always falling over.....
I wish they would sell a option with a handle
me too i have suggested it to them already.
hey af whats up man i just bought ur wheel foam and 007 gloss shine also ik9 foamer i gotta a question how much wheel cleaner do u put in the ik9 foamer to water
Six cylinder jeeplife Bruno he has multiple videos about that. Light dust: 4oz to 1 gal
Medium dust: 8 oz to 1 gal
Heavy dust: 12 oz to 1 gal
he did a video on the dilution process, check it out:
ua-cam.com/video/bPkb3Hdo7K8/v-deo.html
Hey AF any other place we can get the Erie tools undercarriage cleaner. Amazon is sold out.
try contacting the manufacture direct, Amazon sold hundreds off my video i guess they are waiting for new stock to come in which will eventually happen
Great video! Do you ceramic coat your gloss wheels?
if you dont want scratches use a bigboi mini blower or the pro version no more scratches and microfiber cloth needed :)
i blow them dry for the most part it is the water that runs from the rotor vanes after your finished with the wash that ruins the wheels so you must give it time to drip then clean the barrels as i show if you blow dirty water your causing more of a mess on gloss black
thebackstab do you have the bigboi? Do you like it?
Great vid on black wheels. What's your opinion on black cars? I'm about to buy a 2017 GT350 in either magnetic gray or black.
i like black cars but most OEM paint on black cars is horrible these days it depends how much of a "Fanatic" you are with this stuff.
I have a black GT350 and my son has a Magnetic. The car looks great in either color. Mine underwent 6 hours of paint correction followed by Modesta coating. After three years it looks better than new.

stay away from that Armor all stuff it ruined a set of wheels on me years back. the wax does help or you can try a ceramic coating or ceramic sealant
@@autofanaticcars Ok noted. I liked the concept of the spray but after it left that residue on my wheels I started having second thoughts.
I use one of the finger mitts from OG. I love my 5 spoke wheels, can get to the entire wheel with the finger mitt :)

Awesome bro, you should do a quick video of how you modified your brush with a handle
Agreed
Yes. You bated us with your Wormit mod. What specifically did you do?
Love my black wheels and this is informative and knowledgeable.Thanks for this video ✊
thanks for checking it out
How many cars should I expect 1 gallon of wheel cleaner to last? (In ik9)
depends how you use it
Nylon brushes such as the speed master brush will scratch matte or gloss black wheels no doubt, and no one ever talks about it
Great vid, I'm definitely getting one of the Wooly Wormit brushes. Anything that makes cleaning wheels easier for me is a no brainer, I hate cleaning wheels so the better I get at it and the easier it is the less I hate it!
I already rinse with DI water and I can see me going down the route of blow drying too now I'm getting older, it just saves my poor old knees and shoulders 👍
I pressure rinse my wheels with deionized water and blow them dry with Air Force blower: done.
Did you will sell the "wormitt" modified?

Can you make a video how you made the handle? Thanks!

I will take that speed master brush!
gone already shipped it out just now
Great video. I have to get that Wollywormit. It will be perfect for my track package wheels
smartest brush to come along in a while, just modify it with a handle and enjoy
@@autofanaticcars Where do we buy the blue handle you used to modify the WollyWormit?
Awesome, will look at the wormitt, great video AF, 👍
I tried the mineral spirits works like a charm. 7 dollars home depot
glad you took my tip, best way to clean tires
@@autofanaticcars RV water filter does it stop water spots ?
Different flavoured brushes.. 🤪
Them bristle brushes are very hard on black painted rims..
light scratches everywhere
i never use bristle brushes on black wheels i just showed them for reference purposes.
Great video and awesome mod for the WoolyWormit.
at this point if you really wanna thoroughly clean your wheels, just take em off that would be quicker
Hey af my man wow i just received the 007 gloss spray holy shit my man you fucking nailed it my white jeep overland looks outstanding ive used bead maker,v07,gtechniqe and let me tell you nothing can evwn compare wow and the windows holy come out streak free same with my black polished wheels this shit is just a life saver man just thought id tell ya great product and thank u for making it!!!!
thanks for sharing its truly an awesome and super versatile product with no BS
Auto Fanatic agreed what i like about most is the ease of wiping it off just makes my job much easier and enjoyable
Some like the speedmaster brush, but I too hate getting sprayed. But they are great in engine compartment!
its a good brush but i just do not trust it on gloss black if you are as much as a "fanatic" as i am plus getting hit in the face and arms sucks using it.
