Bilt Hamber Auto-Wheel V2 Wheel Cleaner (1L)

Bilt Hamber Auto-Wheel

Bilt Hamber Auto-Wheel is a highly effective, pH-neutral cleaner designed for the safe removal of brake dust and road grime from steel wheels and alloy rims. Thanks to its gentle, acid- and alkali-free formulation it is an ideal choice for regular maintenance as well as deep cleaning. The product actively reacts with metallic contaminants, making them easy to rinse away safely without risking damage to the wheel surface.

During braking, high friction produces brake dust that contains thousands of glowing metal particles. These particles literally bake into the wheel surface and form a resilient layer that ordinary shampoos cannot effectively remove. Aggressive acidic cleaners will dissolve these particles, but with long-term use they can damage paint, the clearcoat or cause dulling of polished metal finishes.

This modern cleaner works on a completely different principle. The active ingredients react with the oxidised surface of metallic particles and convert them into water-soluble compounds. This reduces the baked-in deposits and allows them to release from the wheel surface. The process is accompanied by a pronounced colour change of the runoff to a dark red shade, indicating the reaction is taking place. This method is completely safe for all types of painted and polished wheels.

Thanks to the product's high efficiency, mechanical cleaning is in most cases unnecessary — contaminants can simply be rinsed off with a strong jet of water after treatment. The product regularly wins independent tests by the prestigious British motoring magazine Auto Express, which confirms its leading position on the market for effective and safe gentle wheel cleaning.
