Thumbs up Advice worth repeating.

You may have noticed Josh popping up every so often with a quick one word reply when the topic is wheel cleaning. Having taken that advice, I must report that I am now a devotee.

Oh! you want to know what it is?

That one word is...............

Viro-sol.

It removes all that nasty brake dust and even my exhaust tailpipe is like new, even though it was as black as the car prior to its meeting with Viro-sol. Just spray it on and wash off. The tailpipe did need some gentle, and I mean gentle, agitation to get it fully clean.

I was trying to track down some MC2 till Josh popped up with some timely advice (Thanks Josh)

Available from >>>Here<<< It is the fourth product up from the bottom, worth every penny. Dilute it 10 parts water to 1 part Viro-sol.
I apologise if this has been said before (I know it has) but well worth saying again.

Viro-sol is indeed a good product, as is MC2 - in fact, they're the same thing!

I bought some stuff called MC2 from Mark AKA wax Wizzard - Charged me £28 Gallon!!

I did some home work and dicovered it was produced by a company from West sussex and marketed by many janitorial suppliers under various names.

When I got some from another supplier and put it next to the stuff from Mark it looked exactly the same except the one I just bought had a label - took the label off and it exactly matched the other stuff, even the screw cap was the same - funny that as the ones from Mark always had no labels on.

Interesting thread here -
