I love the pumps that came with hyper dressing and hyper wash. Wheel brightner is pretty extreme, I doubt I will have a 100% use for it. But, its always good for those really bad wheels you haven't washed all winter. I read the safty sheet, it looks very dangerous, but then again said to use same percautions as Last Touch. I will buy some eye protection, I have Chemical resistant gloves. I thought it smelled like grapes ? smells like death in a bottle.
Anyway, Im really happy with my order. The new detailer line bottles are perfect for dilution ratios.
I will post a picture of my complete detailing shelf when I finish cleaning it up. I have 8 gallons of Meguiars Detailer line products now.

Looking forward to your report FrOzen.
The WB vapors bother you any?

It did, very acid like smell. Good thing it contains no Hydroflouric acids, I will get some eye protection, I should be good then. I expected a "Cherry" smell, I will have a chance to test out some of the products this weekend.
This thread made me purchase Wheel Brightner.

Why are you contemplating purchasing WB or you already use it your self, and just wanted to know what I thought ?

I have the old WB that was replaced by what you just bought, and I had some problems breathing the fumes without a mask.
The newer Detailer products are supposed to be VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) compliant according to the EPA.......I thought the newer WB might not be quite as bad (Healthwise) as the old.

Ahh I see, does that mean that they are more safe ? I will mix it 4:1 tommorow I will wear eye protection and rubber chemical resistant gloves. I really look like a fool washing my car looks like im working at a nuclear power plant cleaning my wheels, oh well my neighbors think Im crazy already.

I would certainly think so, but it's still an acid base cleaner, so I would wear the glasses if nothing else.
I don't wear gloves with the old, but maybe I should.
I used to work with a Hydrochloric-Sulfuric acid combo years ago when I soldered metal parts together.....I burned my arms with it one time, but not severely. I'm sure WB is no where near that strong.

Hey FrOzen,
You will love the products you have purchased!!
As for the WB, it does smell like grapes to me. I have not had any issues with using the WB, but if you want, you could mix up a batch at 10:1 until you get used to using it before moving on to the suggested 4:1. I use it at 4:1 and rinse the sprayer with water after using the product. Again, use only on cool wheels. Make no mistake, it is a Professional product that works incredibly well! I have not used anything better!!!!!!! :xyxthumbs
Enjoy the new products! :)

What kind of protection do you use besides gloves ?
As for the sprayer heads quiting, I have a chemical resistant sprayer quit on me on a black opal 32oz bottle before, thats about it.

My sprayer head was supposed to be chemical resistant, but it came from Wal-Mart, so it may not be up to snuff if you know what I mean.
I'm going to the local janatorial supply store and see if they have anything of better quality there.
Might be a good idea to rinse the WB sprayer head as Tim mentioned, as it should prolong the life of it.

Gloves...ah....they were very thin, almost invisible gloves I was wearing in the WB thread! :o :o
Truth be told, I should have been wearing gloves to be safe. I do not use a mask as I wash outside. But if you wash in a more confined area, you should probably wear a mask. But again, I have never had issues with fumes except when I applied it to a set of hot wheels. Otherwise, no problems. But as Rusty Bumper suggests, if a person is sensitive to chemicals, taking precautions is a good idea! :)
After using the WB, always rinse the spray head by spraying fresh water through it. This will protect the spray head from damage.

Yeah, I guess nothing could happan if even you got a small amout on your hands, since you have the hose right there you could rinse instantly. I will stick to spraying the spray head off every time I use it.

Here are some pictures of my updated detailing arsenal. I took some time last night to clean it out, it had many small spills and dust. Being the perfectionist I am, I could not stand it, so I cleaned it out. There is a mix of products I bought previously and the new ones I just received. As of now, I am done orderding more stuff. I have more then enough products to suit my needs now, and I have no need for anymore.
First picture is of my arsenal as of August 2004, Second picture is of my arsenal of today.

:D Very clean. I have a another strong wheel cleaner along with WB and it's recommended even with chemical RESISTANT sprayers to wash them out each use.
WB is that strong? Whew! Guess I'll have to dilute to 4:1.

Well like any company they don't want to get sued, so each bottle from the detailer line says to wear goggles, gloves, and a mask and protective eye wear, yes even for Last Touch and Hyper Wash. The wheel brightner, I have not used yet, but I will soon the fumes are nasty though.
