Against We’re weren’t convinced about the performance of this product.
Overall



EASE OF USE


The product sprayed on easily enough but the liquid appeared to slide straight off the wheel, making us doubtful that it was working. The development time is one of the longest at 3-5 minutes.

EFFECTIVENESS


It dealt with brake dust and general grime easily, and the main wheel surface came up beautifully straight away. Stubborn stains required a brush, but even rigorous scrubbing didn’t remove all deposits

VALUE FOR MONEY


At this price it’s good value for money, but we wouldn’t want to pay any more for it.
