Best way to clean VMR Wheels

bmwbear2011 · 06-02-2011, 12:53 PM

What is the best product to use to clean matte black VMR wheels?

I use regular car wash solutions to wash them, but when I want to touch them up I am thinking of using household rubbing alcohol. Is this acceptable?

There is occasional bug splatter, grease and brake dust...

I would not recommend using alcohol since it may cause damage to the finish in the long run. Some diluted P21S wheel cleaner with water + elbow grease should do the job.

can p21s be found at local automotive stores or is it only available online at specialty websites?

I think they sell it at CAP (consumer auto parts) not sure if you guys have these down south. Also BAVauto and autogeek has it available on-line.
