My mates DC5 brembos are a really faded pink colour, and he thinks it's down to the acidic wheel cleaner he used. I don't want mine to go like that.

I normally use wonder wheels, but I'm unsure on how acidic it is. How does stuff like ironX and bilberry compare?

Thanks

Both bilberry and iron-x are acid free.
Although iron-x isn't purely a wheel cleaner, it's a fall out remover which should only be used every now and then.
Bilberry on the other hand is ace, because it's concentrated you can vary the strength of it by dilution. Smells nice too!

+1 for Bilberry... Decent stuff [smilie=karls_thumb.gif]

+1 again for bilberry :salut:

[SeanEP3]

Bilberry it is then! thank you.

Bilberry is a strong alkali, you want to use something PH neutral, I would recommend Iron X

Just give the wheels a good clean using tardis/iron x/bilberry then seal them with dlux/c5 then just use water and shampoo to clean them
