Alloy wheel cleaners tested - Winners

05 September 2011
After a summer of motoring, your alloys are probably in need of a bit of TLC – and now’s the time to get them shiny again before the winter weather sets in.

A build-up of brake dust and road dirt isn’t just unsightly, it could damage the finish of your wheels.

Thankfully there are some effective and easy-to-use products on the market that will save you cash in the long run and give you gleaming rims to be proud of.

We tested eight alloy wheel cleaners to see how they scrubbed up.
