excellent rim cleaner...

i'm not sure if any of you guys or girls have heard of using it before.. but heavy duty oven cleaner is an amazing rim cleaner... i used it yesterday its amazing how well it worked...

you just spray it all over the rims... the let it sit for 10-15 mins... spray it off with a hose.... all the dirt and grime will be off you just gotta scrub any small areas on the rims.... and just like that you have new rims

just wash it down, remove tire and have the rims re-clear coated, slap self across back of head, re-install tire and voila, nice clean rims
easy as pie

thanx, but i'll stick with either Meguires or Simple Green..

well i had the oven cleaner sitting at home and the rim cleaner my dad had at home was not working.... they are shitty izuzu impulse rims so appearance isn't the important feature to these rims

Not sure how dirty your rims get...but I use the leftover soapy water from washing my car and do the rims with an old washmit. No problems...but oven cleaner??!

i'm not crazy, i'm just to lazy to sit scrubing shitty rims that have no chance of looking good without a new powder coat i can't afford.... if i had expensive rims like yourself 94eg6hb... then yes oven cleaner would not be a good thing.... what kinda rims are those anyways??
