  • Black and Red Wheels Suzuki Swift Sport

    Have a black car and take care of it. Challenge accepted.

    Have black wheels .... well.

    This are the dirty wheels of my Suzuki Swift Sport. I want to show the process I use for cleaning them.



    I use some products from the detailer line. First I use the Karcher pressure washer to remove all the dirt possible.



    You can use the following products:

    D101 Meguiar's All Purpose Cleaner.
    D108 Meguiar's Super Degreaser.
    D1801 Meguiar's Wheel & Paint Iron DECON.
    D140 Meguiar's wheel Brightener.
    D170 Meguiar's Hyper Dressing.
    G7516 Meguiar's Endurance Tire Gel, G15415 Meguiar's Endurance Tire Dressing (Aerosol).
    G18211 Meguiar's Ultimate Paste Wax, 11 oz.

    I only used Wheel Brightener, no need for the iron remover this time.



    I use different types of brushes for the wheel spokes, arches and tires. I even use the trusty toothbrush.



    You can clean the wheel arches with Superdegraser or All Purpose cleaner depending on the dirt you have. Agitate the product with a good brush.

    I use a wheel brush for cleaning the inside of the wheel and is very handy for tight spaces.



    I use all purpose cleaner for the tire. Agitate with a stiff bristle brush.



    For the wheel arches I use Hyper dressing diluted 4:1



    Now they are clean but need dressing to complete the effect and look like new.



    Apply deliberately and distribute with a foam applicator if needed.



    Looks better.



    Now to dry the wheel with a waffle weave microfiber.



    I like shiny tires so I used Endurance Tire Spray. This version doesn't exist anymore. Distribute the product with a tire foam applicator.



    Nearly finished.

    AFTER


    Final result with a coat of Ultimate paste wax. This is very important because it will make subsequent cleaning easier.
