Need a "in store" wheel cleaner for now!

I detailed a BMW with some iForged wheels. Used the Poorboy's Spray and Rinse wheel cleaner and man, did it leave a tough stain that takes a long time to wash off. It's almost impossible to wash away with normal water/car wash and microfiber towels. I had to give it a good scrub using Optimum Metal polish but took most away. I thought it was eating away the clear coat. There are still some leftover stains on there, is it safe to use the metal polish and 0000 steel wool? It's on the face of the wheel and lip.



Any other suggestions on other wheel cleaners I can purchase in store? I'm looking into Meg's Wheel Brightner, Meg's All Wheel Cleaner, Meg's Gold Class All Wheel Cleaner, Armor All Wheel Cleaner. I'll be purchasing a P21S gel soon, but I need it now for another customer with aftermarket wheels.
 
i love this stuff, too bad it isn't available in gallons...

exactly what wheels are these off of? Post a pic even if it is off of google. Sorry to hear that you ran into that little issue with the rims.



I recommend using CG Sticky Wheel Gel. It works great and is safe for pretty much all rims, painted and everything. Megs wheel brightner i have also and that works great but be careful with how you use it.



off the shelf stuff . . . meguiars has some good wheel cleaner.
 
I tried the Megs foamy one, don't recall the name, purple bottle, worked great. I later used it to clean an old filthy aluminum ladder and a few other metal od's and end's around the garage. It worked well there too.
 
Eagle One is the best off the shelf in an AutoZone etc. If you have a Harley store nearby you can get the S100 which is the same as PS1S if my memory servies me right, they're the same company.

Run, don't walk. I love this stuff.
 
You guys are geniuses! I didn't know the P21S wheel cleaner is the same as the S100 wheel cleaner and it's almost half the price! Just wondering if these can be diluted?
 
i personally would not dilute the p21 or s100 only because straight out of the bottle they arn't that strong . . . . . they are more so for wheels that are maintained rather well.
