#8800, "Cleaning my wheels"


          

What's up,

I have a problem with one of my rims that came on my '98 Eclipse. It has a build-up of _________ (clay, rust, thick dirt, choose one) on it. I have scrubbed the CRAP out of the wheel, and it won't come off. I need some kind of super incredible take-the-clear-coat-off cleaner. Somebody help!

Thanks
Kris

I take my wheels off b4 shows and clean with Meguiar's Hot Rims. It cuts everything and is clear coat safe. Use that ish.

I don't think that a normal wheel cleaner will cut that.

I need something STRONG!
