ADAMS TOTALLY KICKED ASS! Your videos are so helpful and thorough! Thanks! BTW what SHOULD one use on tires with aluminum wheels?

@BelLavoroAutoSpa 2 жыл бұрын

Citrus degreasers work well on tires without concern of the run off quickly causing damage to the aluminum

D143 is by far my favorite wheel & tire cleaner. The only other one I use is Meguiars D140 when they are really bad 4:1

@DownHillgamer Жыл бұрын

Ohyea D143 is the shit, I use it in my IK foamer. I'd like to try some of the D140, but that's overkill for me lol, I keep my wheels cleaned every week so I could just use hand soap and a rag to knock any brake dust off, but chemicals are fun

Adams is strong. You can dilute that at least 2:1 or more and still get as good of results. It also works great in a foam sprayer, which helps use less product.

@shay1116 Жыл бұрын

Order of 1st application: Adam's, 3D, Meguiar's Order of 2nd application (shorter dwell time than first application): Adam's. Meguiar's, 3D Average length of dwell time for both applications (longest to shortest): Adam's, 3D, Meguiar's So your results directly correlate to the dwell times. To even out the dwell times the second application should have been Meguiar's, 3D, Adam's and they need to sit a bit longer before agitation. I use the Meguiar's diluted 2 parts water, 1 part cleaner and usually 2 applications with agitation get the tires black, but then again I only use water based tire dressing. I have yet to find anything that beats the Bleche White formulation from the 90s. Great video none the less.

I love yellow degreaser, but just like the video shows- it doesn’t really foam up and dries out quicker than others. But- I buy it for $16/gallon at a local 3D. Does a fantastic job, orange degreaser is my second choice

@omarsanchez1558 2 жыл бұрын

At my local 3d, I bring the empty gallon of the yellow degreaser and pay a 9 or 11dollar refill

@SittingWithDogs 2 жыл бұрын

They’re similar but the yellow works well as an interior product diluted 20:1, great on carpets 10:1, spot treatments on stains 5:1. You can also run it in your extraction machines 20:1 for any carpet & fabric cleaning. It’s a PH of 7 so no need to neutralize after using it on interiors. Short answer yellow interior, purple exterior tires, road grime, engine bays, wells etc.

@JexuanyGuerrero 9 ай бұрын

Adams is worth it when you take advantage of their discount coupons and they have the option when yo search the product where you get the gallon and you get a free 16oz as well so definitely worth it

@josecandelaria8443 2 жыл бұрын

The thing is that when you spray the water you do it at the adams side so the cleaning is more powerful at that side, not defending any brand just an observation

I've been using Optimum Power Clean 3:1, but I may try a stronger dilution. I hate those stubborn tire shines people put on their tires...

@joevanseeters2873 2 жыл бұрын

Adams is what I use. I have P&S Brake Buster and that's an "OK" product and foams pretty good, but the Adams blows P&S AWAY by far for heavier dirt on wheels and tires. P&S is a good option for weekly maintained wheels & rims, but I still prefer the Adams. Adams is pretty darn good and I think a reasonably good value. Plus Adams run sales all the time so you can get it on discount quite often making it a good value.

@BelLavoroAutoSpa 2 жыл бұрын

Absolutely. It's no contest with Adams as far as it's cleaning power.

@willoverkill8461 2 жыл бұрын

Appreciate the comparison! That Adams looks very effective. I've been using the 3D yellow myself and it hasn't disappointed, I like its price and I like how it's a very safe chemical according to the SDS, willing to sacrifice a little effectiveness for those other two qualities

Be interesting to compare adams to TW Foaming wheel cleaner it does really well on rubber but Im not sure if it was diluted or not. In videos ive seen. Def Adams for the win, if you could get similar at 2:1 it would be outstanding

tw hyper foam doesnt seem to be quite as strong on tires. though eventually if i get a dirty enough wheel again I might be able to compare them

I never use wheel cleaners with their default nozzles. Buy bulk, and buy a sprayer that spreads the product wide.
