Autoglym's not-so-new wheel cleaning kit....

Sounds like TC's been a victim of Hedge's abduction escapades.

Was it worse than a vindaloo?

Do I see it also says "Do not use on split rim wheels" near the caution bit?

....Yes, you do. Crikey, can you read the box from my photo snap?

I guess it's because the cleaning solution could seep inbetween and be too difficult to ensure getting rinsed out with water.

If you protect the rims with a sealant, you won't need to keep using the cleaner - hosepipe will be enough.

Don't see any reason why the wheels should be dry. Water isn't going to cause problems.

Autoglym will say this to stop the water on the wheel diluting the product, even in the slightest.

....Aha, so speaks an expert and professional    [But now edited to say that AG say it's ok dry but better wet]

Methinks I'll be using some of my Zaino as a sealant.

I have now updated my original post after talking to Autoglym this morning.

• Some of you guys are right: It's not new! But the packaging (merely adding two brushes) is new.

• Note what I've now written about diamond-cut+lacquer alloys.

• The Sodding Hydrochlorithingy is just something which packaging regulations insist on being said.

• It's better applied to a wet wheel but is also effective on a dry alloy.

I hope this helps

Just so peeps know it says "contains Sodium Hydrochloride" which is acid last time I did chemistry so be careful out there.

....You were right, my fwend. Or at least, mostly, because all cleaning solutions need an active agent and the rest is pancaking regs.
