The best wheel cleaner in the world !
June 10, 2021

I have a 21 year old pickup with aluminum wheels that were so awful that I honestly thought I would have to sand blast them to ever get them clean. You just can't imagine how bad a shape these wheels were in. I know it says the Black Magic Chrome Wheel Cleaner is for chrome wheels, but I was desperate to try something before having to get out my sand blaster equipment. I sprayed on the Black Magic and waited a few minutes.Most of the wheel cleaned right away, but there were a few stained places, so I sprayed again and used a non abrasive cleaning pad and gently rubbed on the bad spots. Everything came off completely. My wheels look brand new ! I only wish I had taken a picture of my wheels before I started with the Black Magic because as I said, you just wouldn't believe how bad my wheels looked. I can't say enough good things about this product. I have reviewed this product before, but this is an update. This product is the real deal !

Hello Chrome!
December 15, 2020

This Black Magic Chrome Wheel Cleaner does an amazing job! It easily dissolves dirt, rust, and grime making the chrome shine and sparkle. I used it on my husband's old Mustang, hoping to add some life to the old dull chrome hub caps and bumpers. Not only did it remove decades of dirt, it made the chrome look almost brand new! Goodbye dullness, hello chrome! Highly recommended!

WORKS THE 1ST TIME
December 10, 2020

Black Magic Chrome Wheel Cleaner is a fast acting chrome wheel cleaner that doesn`t need elbow grease to apply or take off. All I had to do was spray it on, it foams a bit and as soon as that`s done just hose it off - I didn`t even need to use the pressure washer! It its the winter season and having a cleaner that only needs a couple of minutes and does a good job the 1st time is great. 1 bottle goes a long way too.

Good Cleaner but not Great
December 09, 2020

I was excited to give this wheel cleaner a shot on the rims of my 1994 Ford Ranger. I haven't cleaned the rims in 10 years or more, so they are in awful shape. I followed the package instructions and sprayed the wheels down followed by a rinse and respray, because these things were awful! Next I drove to the car wash, the kind with the spinning tire cleaners and ran it through a cycle. The wheels were noticeably cleaner, but the baked-on grime proved too tough even for the Black Magic Wheel cleaner. Overall, if you use this regularly it should do the trick. If you wait 10 plus years you probably need to add some scrubbing to the menu to get the best results!

Not For Chrome Bumpers
December 08, 2020

I have to say this first. I really can't rate the Black Magic Chrome Wheel Cleaner. I don't have chrome wheels. My wheels are cast aluminum. And the instructions specifically say" For Chrome Wheels only". I didn't realize it would state for chrome wheels only. So I used it on a plated chrome truck bumper. NOT what it was designed for. So I can't give it a poor rating because it didn't do a good job on my thin plated, think low cost, chrome truck bumper. So I gave it the benefit of doubt and gave it a good rating. I can't give a product a bad rating because I used it incorrectly.

Gentle and Tough!
December 08, 2020

This is my first time using Black Magic Chrome Wheel Cleaner. You spray it on your wheels, they need to be dry and cool. Then you let us sit for a minute and use your hose to clean it. You can then rub off any remnants and you are good to go. It's simple, gentle, and tough. I would recommend this product!

Magic is the key word!
December 07, 2020

This product is amazing. I think everyone that wants to have clean wheels should just get this. It is not really a "spray, wait and rinse" for really stuck on grime but, for just dirt and dust it is. Like any other cleaner for thick grime you have to spray, wait a minute or so and then scrub like you would with anything else that needs a good deep clean. However it will go to work for you and help break down the grime and help you make your wheels look great again. The handle is easy to use and it's easy to spray and doesn't hurt your hand. It didn't cause any damage to my wheels or cause any discoloration or any issues. I will definitely keep this as one of my favorite car products.

Easy application with good results
December 04, 2020

I find Black Magic chrome cleaner to be one of the easiest to use car cleaning products available. It is as simple as spray on, wait and spray off and I really like that it doesn't require a whole lot of elbow grease to look nice. I do find that when dealing with the dust that wears down the appearance of chrome here in the desert, I have to do a repeat application for good results, so I wish the product was a little thicker and could do the job in the first round, but it is still quick doing it twice. I also really like that they include a drying rag. It is a nice thoughtful touch to include something lint free to quickly dry them off and enjoy the results.

Not sure
December 03, 2020

I've used things like this in the past and it really works well, but on the back of this bottle it says in all caps don't use if it's not chrome and then I start thinking aren't all wheel chrome and then I'm unsure and start questioning if I should use it. I guess the other that I've used before I've never read the directions and it's always worked. Now I'm not so sure if I want to use it. Shoot, wouldn't just using dawn soap work too and probably cheaper. I mean you have to get the hose out anyways. I'm sure all newer cars have chrome wheels anyways. Fingers crossed. O and it does come with a little squeegee rag thing.

A really good chrome wheel cleaner
December 02, 2020

With rain and cold weather trying out a wheel cleaner was a bit challenging. I had one wheel that had something on it that I had tried dozens of products on trying to remove it. Nothing I tried worked, even other so-called wheel cleaners. I know that most cleaning products work best around 70 degrees or better, but I was curious about the Black Magic Chrome Wheel Cleaner, so with it almost freezing outside I wanted to see if the Black Magic would show any signs that it might clean whatever was on my one wheel. I sprayed on the cleaner and waited a few seconds and then started rubbing. I couldn't believe it. As cold as it was and after everything I had tried to clean my wheel, the Black Magic was taking off whatever had been on my wheel for months because nothing else would take it off. If Black Magic will take off the hardest to clean substances off chrome wheels, I have no doubt it will do a great job for the average wheel cleaning job. I highly recommend this product and it will be the only wheel cleaner I buy from now on.

Not an expert, but it works
December 01, 2020

I've never used a wheel cleaner, until now. Easier than I thought. Just spray it on cool, dry wheels. Wait 2 minutes. Hose off. Wipe away remaining brake dust and grime. I had to use it twice on my wheels. So does that mean my wheels are nastier than most people's wheels? I don't know? The cloth worked well to make them shiny. Next time I will get the wheel brush first. There isn't a smell to the cleaner, unless you spray your hands, which I did. Bottom line. It does what it says. Not effortless. But it works.

Safe and Easy
December 01, 2020

After a long, hot summer it was time to get the vehicles ready for winter, which meant a full detail job, chrome wheels included. I have to say that the Black Magic Chrome Wheel Cleaner did an excellent job. The generous-sized 23 ounce spray bottle comes complete with a textured wipe rag and has easy to follow directions. The main active ingredient is Glycolic Acid (basically the same chemical as used in facial peels) and it got the job done quickly without any odor. Spray on dry wheels, let sit for several minutes, hose off then wipe clean to a beautiful shine. Simple and easy, would highly recommend.

Works on most wheels beautifully!
November 29, 2020

I wish I would have done a before and after! I used the cleaner on two of our cars. The picture is of the car with alloy wheels and they came out so clean and shiny like new. The cleaner is so strong it takes little to no effort after you Spray to clean your wheels. The grim loosens and has great slip that rinse off. We use it once a week because we are now use to the look of extra clean wheels. If your in a rush you can spray them while you warm your car up and get rinse it off without really needing to take time to wipe them down.Very good quality product that works quickly and at a affordable price. I now don't have to worry about having a clean car but dingy tires. There was no horrible smell that came out which I love because I'm sensitive to strong cleaning smells. We will continue buying this product!

I have used Black Magic products for years and very pleased with them especially for the "tires", black bumpers, and trim. The Chrome Wheel didn't didn't work like a medical as I was expecting. With a little rubbing, the shine happened. I'm thinking I didn't let it stay on long enough before spraying it off. What was on the rims did rub off easily.

Shiny
November 29, 2020

This chrome wheel cleaner leaves chrome wheels very shiny. You just spray it on and leave it a couple of minutes, then hose it off. If there is still some gunk left on the wheel, use a rag to clean the rest off. If the gunk is really bad, you might need to repeat your previous actions. But, the results are nice with very little physical effort.

Schmutz-cutter
November 28, 2020

I have only just tried this and my initial impression is excellent. I like how it cuts right through the schmutz so that it rinses/wipes right off. I also used it to clean a fan that had been in the window. Know how that soot-like stuff usually wants to just sit and not move? This scoots it right along. Especially good if you can't access every little cranny to "rub" on it. I haven't used too many speciality cleaners like this so don't have a ton of comparisons - I often use one product for multiple applications, but as stubborn as garden-variety schmutz (especially city schmutz) can be, I think this is well worth using.

Went out today and used the chrome cleaner on my wife's Toyota. I give you a terry cloth that you can get into the cracks and crevices of your rims and it cleaned up very well. All you have to do is it let it set or one to two minutes and then just wipe it off. Is the used overall good product. Would recommend to a family member or friends.

Black Magic to the rescue
November 28, 2020

Black Magic has solved a long standing problem for me. I regularly wash my car at a drive through touchless facility. It has always done a good job for me, except that the chrome wheels and tires never got as clean as the rest of the car. I tried spraying my chrome wheels with the Black Magic chrome wheel cleaner prior to entering the wash, and they came out sparkling clean. Since the wheel cleaner worked so well I decided to give the Black Magic aerosol tire shine a try. I picked up a can on the way home and sprayed the clean, but dull looking tires. It worked great, and the wheels and tires looked as good as they had the day I picked up my new car at the dealership.

Shines pretty well...
November 28, 2020

This cleaner came with a small cloth that I used to help wipe and shine my wheels, however, the cloth wasn't enough and got pretty dirty so I used additional cloths during process. I would recommend rinsing your wheels first with some soap and water to get off some of the grime and dirt that's more stubborn on your wheels. I didn't feel the cleaner alone gave wheels quite as great a shine unless washing first. There were some remnants of dirt and grime smeared on wheels if you just used the spray alone without washing and rinsing first. The cleaner did pretty good to bring wheels to a shine but again, I would recommend doing a once over with soap and water on wheels and then using this product. Bottle sprayed well with no issues.

Does a good job
November 28, 2020

This chrome cleaner worked really well on my truck rims. It cleaned the dirt and grime off without any scrubbing and took very little effort to get them nice and shiny. I like that I didn't have to do a lot of scrubbing because I have arthritis in my hands. Usually I have to use a brush to get all that grime off and I still end up missing some. This cleaner got everything with very little effort on my part. I just sprayed it on there and let it sit for a minute and sprayed it off. I'm very happy with the results.

I have been hand washing vehicles for over thirty years and I am always on the lookout for products that are non-abrasive and gentle, but still adequate to get the job done right.

It is easy on and easy off, with a minimum of elbow grease required!

Make sure you only use it on chrome only
November 27, 2020

It says chrome and that's what it means. I could not use it on my vehicle because they were not chrome but chrome look. I ended up trying it on my sons truck. Sprayed it on, left it on and hosed it off. Had to do it a second time to really get them clean. We haven't had bad weather yet with road sludge or salt grime, that will be the real test. My son says I can clean his wheels anytime but not stop at the wheels. Be careful spraying this on anything but the chrome wheels as it could damage other areas.

I'm old school, I think elbow grease polishing works... But I'm also just old now, so having a product that takes some of the 'work' out of it isn't all that bad! My Cadillac is older and was well used when I bought it, so it'll take a couple uses to actually get all the brake dust like it says, but it shined up the chrome like I've never seen on my car!
