Iron X

Used it today (not on D4 but on wife's Polo) - all I can say is WOW - best wheel cleaner I have used, ever 8)

Just brushed on, agitated a bit, left for about 5 mins, power washed off - immaculate.

Had all Disco wheels refurbed last week (look amazing, like a new car) so just washed them, but definitely something to use when they get crappy again

It is great stuff but the smell makes me gag - I spray it on whilst holding my breath!

It is brilliant stuff, Im in a bit of a dilemma with my current car, its two weeks old with the Gloss Black wheels plus they had a glass coat applied so not sure what to use.

So far I've hosed it down and let it dry (no towling) came back out after cuppa expecting a mess and it looked like it did when i picked it up including the wheels. Hoping the glass coat lasts but if it doesn't ill be back on the Iron X routine! Thumbs Up

RDR - I don't think its aggressive enough to damage a lacquer- though I could be wrong

Good news for you, the gloss black finish is superb and hard wearing. Mine has done 50+k and they still just wipe clean very easily. The only additional treatment I do to them is a good polish with Autoglym polish twice a year.

If you liked ironx, give dragons breath a go ... It's a bit more gel like so it clings better but on the down side it smells worse, if that's possible

I prefer iron x due to the easy use.
