Miracle clean for inside of polished Aluminum rims!!

Fox Body · 02-25-2001, 03:33 AM

Seeing that this is the realm of little posts, I shall feel free post my bit of info.

I FINALLY made myself clean the inside of all my rims and the front left one was caked on dirty. Anyway the other three needed washing also, but not as bad. One thing I know is that you have to be a bit gentle with polished Al so I didn't really know what to clean the inside of the wheels with. I wasn't gonna use my Eagle 1 cleaner for the inside. Didnt wanna waste it--only had so much left for outside of rims.

So, I thought, hmmm I'll use Gojo hand cleaner b/c it gets off grease easily, but it can't be too potent b/c it is used on human skin so I tried it and I'm sold. I have found another use for Gojo hand cleaner which does not hurt Al. I'm sure there are other products, but mine is cheaper.
What the heck am I talking about? I need to go to sleep (3:22 AM)
