Sound offWhat it does
Every time you brake, the pads shed a fine dust that settles on your wheels and builds into a dark gray-brown crust. Getting it out from between the spokes with a bucket and sponge is slow work. Rimsmith is a spray-on wheel cleaner. Spray it on a cool wheel, give it a few minutes to loosen the brake dust and road grime, then rinse it off with a hose. Heavy, months-old buildup can need a second pass or a quick go with a soft wheel brush. It is a cleaner, not a polish or a coating: it gets the dirt off so you can see your wheels again.

Questions
Plain answers
Will it work on my wheels?
It is made to loosen brake dust and road grime on car and truck wheels. Finishes differ, so spray a small hidden spot first and rinse. Skip wheels with peeling, chipped or damaged finish.
Do I still need to scrub?
Light and medium buildup usually rinses off after the wait. Brake dust that has sat for months can need a second spray or a soft wheel brush.
Can I use it in the sun?
Work in the shade on cool wheels. Heat and sun dry the cleaner too fast, and dried cleaner can leave spots.
Will it fix scratches or curb rash?
No. It is a cleaner. Scratches, curb rash and worn finish stay as they are.
When will it arrive?
Orders ship in 1 to 3 business days, then arrive in 7 to 15 business days with tracking. Free US shipping over $60, otherwise $6.95.
