Meguiar’s Hot Rims Aluminum Wheel Cleaner is designed to be safe on all uncoated aluminum wheels and wash away filth with ease, leaving behind clean wheels. Its unique foaming solution, Xtreme Cling is designed to cling to vertical surfaces and break down stubborn road residue from metal.
Safe for cleaning all uncoated aluminum wheelsBefore Cleaning the Wheels
Know that there is a variety: The first step in wheel care is recognizing that not all wheels are made the same. Wheels are made from different types of materials and coatings. The product used on the wheels is determined by the surface which can range anywhere from chrome, powder coated, painted, to polished aluminum and many more.
Identify what it's driving on: The next step is to determine what kind of wheels owned. Most wheels that come with a factory-purchased vehicle are clear coated wheels. However if they have been replaced with aftermarket wheels, find out the surface material by contacting the manufacturer. Some wheels may even be coated with two or three different types of coatings, depending on how customized they are.
Choosing The Right Wheel Cleaner
When using a wheel cleaner to remove brake dust and grime there are three products Meguiar’s that are available for to choose from: Meguiar’s Hot Rims Aluminum Wheel Cleaner, Meguiar’s Hot Rims All Wheel and Tire Cleaner, and Meguiar’s Hot Rims Chrome Wheel Cleaner. Meguiar’s Hot Rims Aluminum Wheel Cleaner is safe for uncoated or polished aluminum, anodized and powder coated wheels. This is the safest Meguiar’s wheel cleaner and is also recommended if you’re unable to find out what the wheel type is. This is also the best product to choose if there are any type of aftermarket or high performance brakes since they are typically made of specialized components as well. Meguiar’s Hot Rims All Wheel and Tire Cleaner is safe for all factory coated wheels. Meguiar’s Hot Rims Chrome Wheel Cleaner is specifically designed for all chrome plated wheels, and is sure to give a mirror-like finish.
Knowing the Consequences of Choosing the Incorrect Wheel Cleaner
Using the wrong product with the wrong surface can potentially cause permanent damage to the surface of the wheels, brake or even suspension components. Make sure to read the label on any product used and check that it is meant to work with the wheels’ surface. If unsure of the wheel type and unable to contact the manufacturer, start with the most gentle wheel cleaner and test a small area.
Applying Meguiar’s Hot Rims Aluminum Wheel Cleaner
For best results, apply in a well-ventilated area, one wheel at a time. Not safe for motorcycle wheels or aftermarket, painted or colored brake components.
- 1. Rinse wheel thoroughly with cold water.
- 2. Coat wheels and tires with Meguiar’s Aluminum Wheel Cleaner holding bottle 6-8 inches away.
- 3. Wait 15 seconds to allow foaming cleaners to penetrate and dissolve build-up. For heavy build-up, agitate surface with a clean microfiber wash mitt, such as Meguiar’s Microfiber Wash Mitt.
- 4. Rinse thoroughly with water.
- 5. Dry wheel with a 100% cotton terry cloth towel such as a Meguiar’s Soft Buff Terry Towel, or premium microfiber, such us Meguiar’s Supreme Shine Microfiber Towel.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
where to start. I put this up against meguiras hot wheel and rim cleaner and I must say I was a little shocked. Here was my setup.
2001 dodge caravan. The rims have never been scrubbed and the wheels have never been scrubbed either. Sure they have went through automatic carwashes, my wife usually did it about once a week but never have these rims been scrubbed at all by hand. Surprisingly they were not nearly as bad as some youtube videos I saw so I guess car washes once a week still helped out a bunch.
Anyways following directions for both, the sonax sat on the rims for 4 minutes and the meguiras about 30 seconds.
I really expected more from a $20 bottle of wheel cleaner, I saw lots of youtube videos and I just felt this was going to stomp meguiras. Keep in mind I had no plans on putting this up against anything. Turned out I forgot I put the $5 add on bottle of meguiras in an earlier order to meet my minimum then the next day I bought this.
Anyways the sonax did ok. It took a fair amount off, It did turn nice and red which makes you think its working its butt off. After the rinse though, it was still very dirty. The meguiras rim, you could see in just 30 seconds it sliding right off. Rinse and inspect and it got a lot more of the rim cleaned than the sonax rim.
So for the other 2 wheels I did the exact same test but this time I used a small round detailing brush to get into the lug nut holes and went ahead and used it to go over the entire rims, mind you this was a fairly soft brush so there was no real scrubing action here.
The sonax wheel did better this time but still left some areas on the rim. I suspected as much as it was not a scrubbing brush I was using. The meguiras rim just amazed me. Same brush, almost no pressure at all and after the rinse that rim looked amazing. There were still a couple spots but it got the majority of it off with so little effort.
So my conclusion, Sonax did ok. Not $20 ok but it did work. The $5 bottle of meguiras though, it blew it away. In a no touch situation it was better than sonax but not night day difference. In touching the rims to clean though, sonax again did ok but that $5 bottle did it in a fraction of the time. The downside with meguiras is you will go through more of it quicker. I did 4 rims and tires and I had between half and 1/4th left. So if sonax can clean about 15 cars with one bottle then maybe it is more price efficient but it also took longer and more cleaning effort.
---------------------
I dont care if I go through a bottle a car, the less time I spend bent over trying to clean a wheel and rim will make up for the extra cost.
I did not mention that after my test was done, I went over all 4 wheels with meguiars tire shine. I have to admit, the wheels on that van look absolutely fantastic but the rest of the van looks like crap lol. It hasnt seen a wax job in years. The paint is fading, water does not slide off at all. I bought a bottle of nu finish so I cant wait to see if it can do anything for it, It really needs a complete paint correction but it would cost way to much to have it professionally done and I dont have that kind of money to waste on an old van.

Estaba nervioso por el producto pues no quería arruinar mis rines por un par de comentarios que vi de otros compradores, mis rines son de 2010, no son viejos en lo absoluto y este producto me los dejó cómo nuevos en su totalidad. Me gasté media botella en una sola limpieza pero considera que es sin producto MUY económico para lo que ofrece. No te arrepentirás de usarlo.
Te recomiendo usarlo en un lugar ventilado y a la sombra ya que huele ligeramente a ácido el producto, para evitar mareos durante su uso ;)

Ich habe im Video Felgen, welche eine Session nicht geputzt wurden mit wenig Aufwand sehr sauber bekommen. Ich kann nur den Tipp geben, macht das im Schatten mit kühlen Felgen. Um sparsam mit dem Mittel umzugehen, nehmt einfach einen alten, weichen und sauberen Pinsel. Mit dem könnt ihr das Mittel gut verteilen und der Schmutz löst sich auch besser.
Die Mercedes Felgen sind mein Härtebeispiel. Diese wurden mehrere Jahre (müssten um die 4 Jahre gewesen sein) nicht sauber gemacht.
Das Mittel hat nicht alles wegbekommen aber das hatte ich auch nicht erwartet
