Over on DW, some guy used neat Bilberry and ruined his rims.

Why on earth would you do that, I wouldn't contimplate doing that with the stuff. In concentrate form its very syrupy, his sprayer must have got clogged up as well, least of his worries now though. I have used it at 3:1 and thats as much as I would go.

point being, make sure its diluted right! i still wouldnt say its an aggressive one. Im sure the guy did something careless for his rims to be "ruined"

Turns out he left it on the rim for an hour (due to an emergency) and the bilberry dried in and ruined the finish.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

If you clean the car enough then 10:1 should be all you need.
