Nice nice.

You guys ever use this on the whole car? Seems like it would have the same effect as Iron-X.. no?

I have tried but have not gotten the same results on the paint

Hmmm I wonder why. Especially that most of the OEM wheels are painted and clearcoated from the factory nowadays, much like a car's paint job.

SONAX Wheel Cleaner works wonders! I've used it on many of my friends' rides, and they were skeptical with how much brake dust they had accumulated without really paying attention to detailing the wheels. And they were in awe! The changing of colors was enough for them to grab a bottle for themselves. It certainly has worked quite well for my IS F wheels, which many know of how fast brake dust accumulates on those wheels.

Different formulations as well as the concentration they use. I personally mix p21s wheel gel and ironx but it is fairly pricey so I wouldn't recommend it

Its always interesting when a neighbor asks why the ground looks so purple though when cleaning wheels

I'm surprised nobody ever (aside from family) asked why my driveway smells like ****** after using iron-x.... Sometimes I forget to rinse off the pavement after iron-x use and I can smell it for days afterwards.
