The Experts at Meguiar's Stresses the Importance of Choosing Wisely For Proper Wheel Care

For any car lover, a detail job is not complete without a clean set of wheels, but with so many different types of wheel care products, how do you know which one to use? Contrary to popular belief, different types of wheels require specific cleaning solutions which is why Meguiar’s®, the car care experts since 1901, have put together a simple wheel product guide to help owners make the right choice. Not only will using the right product give you the brilliant shine you’re looking for, but it will help maintain the value and longevity of your wheels!

Know That There is a Variety: The first step in wheel care is recognizing that not all wheels are made the same. While many wheels look similar, they can be made from different types of materials and coatings. The product you use on your wheels is determined by the surface which can range anywhere from chrome, powder coated, painted, to polished aluminum and many more.

· Identify What You are Driving On: The next step is to determine what kind of wheels you own. Most wheels that come with a factory purchased vehicle are coated wheels. However if you have replaced them with aftermarket wheels, you can find out the surface material by contacting the manufacturer. Some wheels may even be coated with two of three different types of coatings, depending on how customized they are.


· Choose the Right Product: When using a wheel cleaner to remove brake dust and grime there are three products Meguiar’s experts recommend:

For all factory coated wheels, Meguiar’s experts recommend Meguiar’s® Hot Rims All Wheel Cleaner. Meguiar’s® Hot Rims Chrome Wheel Cleaner is specifically designed for all chrome plated wheels, and is sure to give you a mirror-like finish.

. For uncoated or polished aluminum, anodized, and powder coated wheels, the professionals recommend Meguiar’s® Hot Rims Aluminum Wheel Cleaner. This is the safest Meguiar’s wheel cleaner and is also recommended if you’re unable to find out your wheel type. This is also the best product to choose if you have any type of aftermarket or high performance brakes since they are typically made of specialized components as well.

· Know the Consequences: Using the wrong product with the wrong surface can potentially cause permanent damage to the surface of your wheels, brake or even suspension components. Make sure to read the label on any product you use and check that it is meant to work with your wheels’ surface.

Five Tips to Keep Your Car Looking Great in 30 Minutes or Less by Meguiars

Between getting through a hectic work week, constantly being stuck in traffic, taking the kids to soccer practice, making dinners, keeping up with the family schedule and performing household chores, today’s car owners have little time to spare for detailing their vehicles. To help these busy motorists, Meguiar’s®, the car care experts Since 1901, have put together a list of five “quick tips” that will help any owner keep his or her automobile looking great and in tip-top shape. If you have 30 minutes, you can easily give your car a quick detail – it will go a long way in maintaining the look and feel of your vehicle… and sometimes even the value!

Always keep a trunk kit: Using the right products is the key to beautifying the look of your vehicle in the shortest amount of time possible. Meguiar’s® recommends motorists keep a “trunk kit” handy at all times, complete with a variety of products to clean their entire vehicle. Products such as Meguiar’s® Endurance Tire Spray, Ultimate Quik Wax and Quik Interior Detailer™ are specially designed to decrease detailing time and swiftly restore the original look of interior and exterior surfaces.

The right tools save time: Having the right assortment of car cleaning tools is one of the easiest ways to shave off detailing time. A microfiber towel such as Meguiar’s® Supreme Shine® Microfiber Towel reduces wipe off time while decreasing the chance of inflicting swirls in your finish. Using foam applicators or a small, soft brush is also recommended for removing debris and applying product to obtain the quickest results.

A little time makes a big difference: The old adage of “a little goes a long way” applies in car care. Spending a few minutes a day or a simple 30-minute session once a week can dramatically reduce the amount of dirt build-up that may degrade the appearance of both interior and exterior surfaces. Full detail sessions are still recommended on a quarterly or half yearly basis to ensure that your vehicle remains in tip-top shape but these short sessions definitely help maintain and protect in the interim.

Be careful where you park: Drivers should always be aware of where they park, taking care to avoid parking underneath trees and near sprinkler systems. Not only can birds, sap and water permanently damage a car’s exterior, but they also add time to any detail session.

Avoid Short Cuts: Meguiar’s® experts recommend avoiding quick, but costly short cuts when cleaning your car during a quick detail. Using a paper towel from the gas station may seem like a time-saver, but owners run the risk of damaging the exterior of their car by using a dry wipe. Instead, consumers should lubricate the surface by using a detail spray, such as Meguiar’s® Ultimate Quik Detailer, and a Supreme Shine Microfiber when removing any residue off of a car’s exterior. Also waiting to quick detail in cooler temperatures allows product to dry effectively and decreases the chance of streaks or swirls in the finish.

Meguiar’s All Metal Wheel Polish is not intended for use on painted, clear-coated wheels or chrome plated plastic, but is the ultimate solution for consumers searching for a way to keep their metal wheels looking new.

If this product leaves your wheels shiny like their Quik Interior Detailer Wipes do, then this would definitely be a must have.
