    Okay so I have heard everybody talking about this wheel gel for a while and have always wanted to try it just never have. I got some for Christmas this year and I tried it on a variety of wheels with different levels of brake dust. I just gotta say WOW!!! This stuff is awesome. It worked amazingly well and I can't tell you how much time it saved me with some intricate TSW's that I had to clean. I will definately be ordering a whole lot more of this product and will recommend it to anyone looking for a quality wheel cleaner that is safe and really simple to use. :headbang:

    p21s is great stuff, but diablo wheel gel is just as good and can be diluted

    I have heard mixed reviews on the diablo. I tried the citrus wheel gel (not really gel) and was not impressed at all. Would you say diablo is just as good as p21s?

    Definately a proven product and probably the most expensive wheel cleaner around. However only at full strength. I find the cleaning power drops off drastically even at 1:1. Having said that I reserve it for delicate wheels or personal vehicles :) Have been hearing alot about the diablo gel and ag cwc. I may have to pick some up to try soon.

    Diablo rocks. I don't have p21s gel to compare though.

    On my personal vehicle a wheel cleaner isn't even needed... I keep my wheels sealed and wash once a week... car soap is more than enough...

    I hear ya. In the summer time, I even keep ONR in a bucket (with lid) in the garage. That way every time I come home, I give the wheels a quick rinse.

    I hate having dirty wheels. It's like wearing a tux with dirty work boots or something.

    @ 3:1 Diblo is weaker then P21S straight, but is more cost efficient...I like both of them, but recently got myself a gallon of Diablo...hey, afterall, you can always try diablo undilluted...

    If you like P21S, you'll love AG Custom Wheel Cleaner. $45CDN for 5litres and you can dilute it 1:1. Gloss it gel is a tad more expensive but can be diluted 3:1 and works as good as P21S as well.

    Is custom wheel cleaner a clinging gel? I'm a fan of gel wheel cleaners :)

    I'm not sure, but I've used it on bare aluminum wheels with no ill effect

    AG CWC is the BOMB!!! But not for dirty wheels. it foams really well out of a normal sprayer. and has brightening agents that leave the wheels with a nice shine. love this stuff,

    I used AG CWC on X5 rim barrels, and have to admit I was very impressed. I haven't tried GI wheel gel though...

    according to the website no it does not contain any acid

    If what Emile says is correct then I would not expect P21s to have any acid of any kind since it is slightly basic.
