Hello,

Really boring question, but how do you clean your rims? Or more so, what product do you use?

Can you use car alloy cleaner?

Also UK based, so a product I can acquire.

Cheers

I clean it with the chain degreaser and wash the bike (and rims )to get everything off. only the rear rim gets a degreaser the front is easy to clean with only regular soap like the rest of the bike.
Edit-
I don't just spray the rim that's wasteful, i spray a microfiber cloth with it not to much and then i use it to clean the rim, depending on how dirty the rim is usually one-two times of spraying the cloth is enough.

I use this stuff...with a lot of microfiber rags! My wheels get pretty dirty.

Ah good idea! Agree with the front wheel, that's nice and easy.

I use Autoglym Clean Wheels and an agitator brush. Paired with the pressure washer, they come out well!
