So Far So Good
New to the brand, the product works great, while I think any wheel cleaner works well. This wheel cleaner from Sonar has really nice bottle that makes the spraying great, the wheel took off at the dirt and grime. Made cleaning ceramic brake dust easy as well. I recommend it!

Worth the money for intricate rims
I bought this on a whim cause I was so tired of having to scrub my rims every time I washed my car. I have intricate rims and so I had somewhat low expectations. I sprayed it on per directions and within a minute I had red liquid pouring down my rims. When I sprayed it off, was shocking! Really good product, will def continue using

WORKS!
It's rare to find a product that does what it says it does. This is one of them. Worked like a charm. Rims came out sparkly clean. Even cleaned out the brake dust that was causing my brakes to squeak. However, like a previous reviewer noted, you pretty much need to use the entire bottle to sufficiently cover all the crack s and crevices of your rims. That makes this a pretty expensive wheel cleaner - works! but boy is it expensive!

Beats all other wheel cleaners
This is by far the best wheel cleaner I've ever used. I've used both Meguiar's, Mother's and Chemical Guys. They all worked decently, I tend to prefer the Meguiar's Hot Rims over the rest; however it doesn't come close to how well this works. With 4 piston brembo calipers and hawk hps pads, my Evo's brakes spew out a TON of dust onto my wheels. It's a constant battle to keep them somewhat clean. If I let it sit on there too long and gather more road gunk, it was impossible to get off with Meguiar's (or anything else) alone, and would require scrubbing (sometimes with a harsh/dangerously hard bristled) brush. Not anymore! This cuts through caked on rims even after a couple months of horrible neglect.You might need to use two passes with it, depending how hard caked the gunk is. My advise is:-First spray the wheels with my meguiars soap and pressure wash them to get off as much as possible before applying this.-If you have a light cleaning (usually less then a couple weeks for my car), then you can get by with spraying two rims at a time. If you're going to have to scrub some of the gunked on mess it's probably best to do one rim at a time. Spray your rim(s) generously getting in your inner rim if possible, your lug nuts, etc.-The liquid will come out kind of greenish and then turn an orangish/redish as it breaks down brake dust. It has a very strong (like cat urine) odor that you just have to get used to.-Let it sit on there for a couple of minutes (usually don't want more then 5). You don't want it to dry on the rim, although having accidentally done this - it washed off no problem.-If it's a light cleaning you can probably get by with just pressure washing it clean at this point, although to make sure you get all parts of the rims I usually go over it with Griot's Garage 15704 Micro Fiber Wheel Wand, (Pack of 2). If the caked on mess requires harder scrubbing I'd recommend something like autogeek's "speed master wheel brush".This bottle usually last about 16 individual wheel cleanings. It makes it the most expensive option out there, but by far the best and safest! It is acid free and ph balanced, and is specifically designed to be safe on all rims. I use this on BBS, Enkei, and WedsSports rims that cost over 1000-1500/per, all the time. I have no worry that this can in any way danger them. A lot of other products out there can be a hit or miss, and especially if you have refinished rims it can be very risky. My BBS are refinished and so far this has not worn it off or damaged them whatsoever. If you're looking for a bit cheaper solution, there's Sonax 230500 Yellow Wheel Cleaner to use as a refill. You can also checkout autogeek, depending on their sales, coupon codes, and shipping situation - you can usually find a better deal there.

Excellent, easy to use wheel cleaner!
I've never used any wheel cleaners on my car until this past month when I tried 2 different products. I've been using a drive through car wash and occasionally get the wheel clean option but that only does an ok job at cleaning the wheels. Whatever dirt/grime that remains has been there and over time the wheels have slowly been looking more and more dirty due to the brake dust and dirt the automatic car wash doesn't get off. I didn't feel like spending a lot of time with a brush, etc so first I tried a Meguiars product from the local auto parts store. Despite the ok reviews for that, it did absolutely nothing to make my wheels look any different.I then ordered Sonax from Amazon. At first I didn't notice anything happening. I sprayed the first wheel and the product appeared to be a fluorescent greenish color and that was it. I moved to the second wheel and saw the same thing. I then looked back at the first wheel I sprayed and noticed it turning reddish color and realized this stuff was working. It even started taking the years and years of crap off the inside of the wheel but I think that will need some additional attention due the amount of crap that's been on there for a very long time.Overall this stuff works fantastic, it's worth every penny and just for ease of use without having to spend time scrubbing the wheels I highly recommend it and I'm very happy to have my wheels looking like new again.
