- Hey, what's up guys.
Welcome back to, "The Chemical Guys Detail Garage."
Today, I will be washing this Q50's wheel.
It has never been cleaned in the past three months.
I'll be showing you guys how to properly use,
the all new Rim Packer Brushes on your wheels.
Alright guys, so I already have my bucket set up,
my dirt trap, my brushes.
And you guys might say,
why do I have so many different types of brushes?
That is because this Q50 wheel, has very intricate areas,
where brushes do not fit.
So this is why I chose the Rim Packers,
as well as the Green Flagged Tip Brush,
as well as the Blue Stiffy Brush,
just so we get into deep crevices and deep clean this wheel.
But before anything, I must enter my dirt trap,
when I am washing my wheels, so I'll just grab my brushes
so they won't fall on the floor,
or pick up any dirt or grime.
So what a dirt trap is, a dirt trap filters while you wash
your vehicle, this is what we recommend using
on your exterior vehicle, as well as your wheels,
because all those brake dust, that are metal particles,
can go back onto your surface of the wheel,
and potentially damage it.
So this is why we recommend filtering,
while you wash your wheels.
And right here, I have my Rim Packer Reach Arounds,
this is at obtuse angle, that will help me get behind
the lug nuts because details matter,
and sometimes straight brush do not reach back there.
So, save your wrist and use the Reach Around.
And then to get the barrel of the wheel off side,
these three Rim Packer Ultimate Wheel Brushes,
there's a mini one all the way to a big one.
It all depends what type of wheels you're using,
so I'll put them in here.
And then we also have our Green Flagged Tip Brush,
our Green Flagged Tip Brush is going to help us clean
the face of the wheel, the synthetic bristles are very soft,
just get it very sudsy, very lubricated, scrub it,
and you good to go.
And then moving on to our other brush,
it's going to be our Boar's Hair Detailing Brush.
This is going to be, to get into intricate details,
such as around the spokes, the lug nuts as well,
as well as the valve stem.
And finally to degrease the tire,
we have our Blue Stiffy Brush.
Well recommend degreasing your tires,
because whenever you degrease your tires,
you remove old previous dressings,
so whenever you come up and repair a new dressing,
like VRP, Blue Guard, Extreme Liquid Tire Shine,
or even Tire Trim gel, it won't wear off,
as fast as other dressings.
Because, keep in mind, you never want to stack your
dressings, you just want to remove it, and apply a new coat.
But now, it is time to get into the wheel clean.
So today the wheel clean I'll be using ,
is going to be Sticky Citrus Wheel Gel.
Sticky Citrus wheel gel, is a gel, that is citrus-based
product, that's going to help me remove all dirt, grime,
as well as break this from the surface of the wheel,
without harming it.
So, I'll just give it a couple of sprays into my bucket.
Just so I can have some lubrication in here.
I could also open up the sprayer,
but I just want to save time and just spray it in there.
And now, I will get my hose and activate the suds.
Now that the suds are activated, I will spray down the wheel
just so I can knock off any loose scrubber debris.
So I just gave it a very light rinse,
but the brake dust did not come out.
So look, I'm just going to rub my finger on here,
and you guys can see.
If you guys look closely down there, you guys can see
the big before and after, that is just by me rubbing
my finger on the wheel, and you guys can see
a big before and after.
The wheels are actually glossy compared to,
the break dusting on it, it's giving it a very dull look.
So we're going to start off by spraying the tire,
as well as the wheel.
I spray the tire beforehand, because I want
the citrus-based product, to emulsify
any old previous dressings, and help me remove it,
a lot easier.
So now, I'll get my Rim Packer Ultimate Wheel Brush,
I'll use the little mini one, just because I want to show
you guys, how easily it is to clean any types of wheels,
especially because the rotor and the wheel are very tight.
So, this is why I'll be using the Rim Packer mini.
So I'll start off from up top,
scrub the barrel of the wheel,
and I'm not worrying about getting behind the spokes,
because that's when the Rim Packer Reach Around,
comes into play.
I'll come back, get more suds.
And if you guys might say, Henry you're not getting
into that surface of the wheel,
yes, that is correct because the caliper is in the way,
so I'll just back up the car, and then I'll clean it up,
and that's how you get that section in the barrel.
So, I'll come over here, and just scrub it out.
And the synthetic wool, that the Rim Packer offers,
is very soft, it works on all types of wheels,
Matte, Aluminum, Chrome, Anodize,
and it won't scratch your wheel.
I'll give it a couple more lubrication on here,
and I'll just scrub it.
So just by me rubbing the barrel of the wheel,
I am removing tons of brake dust, that is living back there,
because a lot of people forget to clean their barrel
of the wheel.
But now, it is time to get it into details,
with the Reach Around.
So now I get the rim packer Reach Around,
so I'll clean the
back of the spokes,
and this brush is at obtuse angle,
and it'll help me get into the hard to reach areas,
where regular brushes do not fit.
You could also flip it to your other hand,
and just scrub it out.
And you guys can see the amazing foam,
that Sticky Citrus Wheel Gel produces.
Same exact thing, right there, I'll just back up the car,
so I get the spokes, in a good angle,
where I could reach them,
and then that's when I'll clean them.
So make sure everything is clean.
And after we are done cleaning the back of the spokes,
you guys can see all the dirt, grime, debris coming off
the surface of the full wheel.
Now, it is time to move on to the face of the wheel.
So for the face of the wheel,
we're going to be using the Green Flagged Tip Brush,
I'll come in here and just scrub it out.
Make sure you get it into all the cracks and crevices.
Next, we are going to be moving on to,
our Boar's Hair Detailing Brush.
Our Boar's Hair Detailing Brush is going to help us,
get into the lug nuts, as well as the valve stem.
I'll give it a couple squirts of Sticky Citrus Wheel Gel,
on them, and I'll just scrub it out.
Once we are done with the lug nuts,
you could also get into the valve stem,
or also get into any areas you might have missed.
And finally, we're going to get our Blue Stiffy Brush,
our Blue Stiffy Brush, is going to help us remove
the previous dressing that was sitting on this tire.
And finally, before I let you guys go, I just want
to show you guys how versatile these brushes are.
So if I just give it a couple sprays of water,
under the fender wheel,
and I spray some Sticky Citrus Wheel Gel under there,
and I get the Reach Around Brush, the bigger one,
you start from the front, work your way around,
you clean your fender wheels, as long as you just cleaned
your wheels, with the Rim Packer.
The Rim Packers can also be used on the interior vehicle.
And just like that, I killed two birds with one stone.
While I'm cleaning wheels, I cleaned the fender wheels,
of this Q50, as well as cleaned the face the wheel.
Now it is time to rinse it down,
to show you guys the results.
And there you guys have it.
You guys see a big before and after.
The wheel is now shiny, the tire is now degreased,
is no longer dirty, if I come and apply a dressing,
it's going to last on the tire, the fender wheel is clean.
Now I could treat it with something like bare bones,
but, since I'm still going to move on to,
the wash on this vehicle, it's pointless for me
to apply a dressing right now.
