❓ Frequently Asked Questions – Crystalline Rim Wheel Cleaner

Is Crystalline Rim Wheel Cleaner safe on diamond-cut wheels?

Crystalline Rim Wheel Cleaner is non-acidic and designed for factory-finish alloy wheels. However, diamond-cut wheels can vary in condition and protective coating. We strongly recommend testing on a small, inconspicuous area first, especially on older, lacquered, or previously repaired diamond-cut wheels.

Can I use this on painted, powder-coated, or lacquered wheels?

Yes — the product is suitable for factory-finished alloy wheels, including painted and powder-coated finishes. Always ensure the wheel surface is cool and avoid allowing the product to dry on the surface.

Is this wheel cleaner acidic?

No. Crystalline Rim Wheel Cleaner uses a non-acidic, alkaline formulation, making it safer to use than traditional acid-based wheel cleaners while still delivering strong cleaning performance.

Does it remove brake dust and iron contamination?

Yes. The thickened gel formula is designed to emulsify and remove brake dust, iron contamination, road grime, and winter salts. For heavily contaminated wheels, light agitation with a detailing brush will improve results.

Do I need to agitate the product?

For light contamination, rinsing after dwell time may be sufficient. For heavier brake dust or grime, agitation with a detailing brush is recommended, which also helps generate foam and maximise cleaning power.

How long should I leave it to dwell?

Allow the product to dwell for 2–3 minutes. Do not let it dry on the surface, especially in warm conditions or direct sunlight.

Can I use it in direct sunlight?

No. Always use the product out of direct sunlight and on cool wheels only to prevent drying and potential surface damage.

Can this be used on other surfaces?

Crystalline Rim Wheel Cleaner is intended for factory-finish alloy wheels only. Use on other surfaces is at the user’s discretion and should always be tested first.

Does it need diluting?

No. This product is ready to use and should not be diluted.

Is it suitable for regular maintenance washes?

Yes. When used correctly, it’s ideal for regular wheel maintenance as well as deeper cleans.

What does it smell like?

It features a pleasant grape fragrance, making wheel cleaning far more enjoyable than traditional harsh-smelling products.
