Usage
Instructions for use
Make sure the rims are not at a high temperature.
Spray evenly over the entire surface of the rim.
Allow a few minutes to act.
At the time of application, the colorless cleaner turns red, indicating that it is dissolving the dirt (in some types of dirt, it may also turn green).

I have been using this product for a while on a car that I wash once a month. In order to achieve excellent results, yes, this product can deliver such a result, I follow the following procedure:
1. I spray the rims while they are dry, both externally and internally, and wait for the product to take effect for about 4 minutes.
2. I rinse thoroughly with a pressure washer.
3. I spray the rims again, both externally and internally, and mainly scrub the insides with a suitable brush (personally, I use the Meguiars brush, but K2 also has its own brush, and obviously other companies have their own as well). Minimal scrubbing is required externally. I wait again for the product to take effect for about 2-3 minutes this time.
4. I rinse again thoroughly with the pressure washer.
Tips for those who use or will use this product:
1. Do not deal with all 4 rims at the same time. Clean 2 rims at a time, first one side of the car and then the other.
2. This is a strong product, so be sure to use gloves, not disposable ones, but thick plastic ones.
3. From what I have seen in most comments-reviews of this product, it is emphasized to use gloves only. However, because, as I mentioned above, this is a strong product with a strong unpleasant smell, it is advisable to also use a mask during its use (personally, I use ffp2).
4. Additionally, because it may blow when you spray the liquid or because droplets may splash when you scrub with the appropriate brush, it is good to also use goggles during use to avoid suddenly getting a drop in your eye.
5. Do not leave the product in a place where it is exposed to sunlight (pay attention especially during the summer months).
6. When storing the product in a shady and cool place, cover it well because otherwise it will have a strong smell.
Overall, the product is very effective, but special attention is required during its use.
Guys, this particular product is very powerful. It cleans the wheel incredibly well with just a scrub. However, if you have new or painted wheels, forget about it... It can damage the finish. I recommend it for boring type vehicles or with hubcaps. However, the smell is unbearable! After a while, it gives you a headache. If it gets on your hands, it takes days for the smell to go away... The area you wash smells for hours, the area where you store it smells. Overall, I do not recommend it
One of the best products I have tried for cleaning wheels... It does what it promises and more, with only one negative aspect, the smell...
All the K2 Pro products I have tried are really great
Basically, it is an iron remover. You spray it on a cold wheel that you haven't wet. You wash it after 5 minutes and everything is gone (as long as it hasn't been dirty for a year). You don't scrub while you have it on, because the dirt/dust from the brake pads creates spiders on the wheel.
The only negative is the endless foul smell. I have it closed in a huge garage and it smells strongly throughout the year in the entire garage. So be careful, use it only in an open space and avoid contact with eyes, skin, and of course, do not breathe it. I washed it on the road and after 2 weeks of pouring water in the same spot on the road, it smelled the same as when I washed it. All this makes me a bit skeptical about how healthy it is.
The best and equal to "expensive-brand-name-detailing products" !!! Maybe needs a little attention because it is too strong! A liter for 10€ there is no other serious! Brand names = 0.5lt and 20€! Top choice!!!
It does what it promises, cleans the rim without any rubbing if you have a pressure washer. If you don't have a pressure washer, you will need to do some rubbing with a brush, but it works fine. It works for all types of rims and personally, I also use it on the body color to remove dirt.
CAUTION: Do not let it dry where you apply it, as it will leave white marks and haze.
If you missed it and it left water marks, just spray it again with a brush and rinse.
The best product for what it is and the best value for money.
I switched from Autoglym Magma, a similar product which has half the quantity and costs 15+ euros.
Yes, the smell is strong, but compared to Autoglym Magma, it's nothing
Cleans perfectly in combination with a brush and makes the rims look like new. The smell is overpowering though and everything around the area you choose to clean ends up smelling. Even clothes smell...
It is not for everyday use but for periodic cleaning when a lot of dirt has accumulated that is not easily removed.
I consider it perfect for this type of use
I don't know if this product really does what it promises, but for me, it didn't remove the stubborn dirt in the corners of the rims on my pick up truck.
Now, if you just want it for rims with the typical dirt from brake pads and dust, then it's fine. Instead of scrubbing them with a cloth, you can spray this, wait a bit, and rinse it off.
It's quite strong, but I don't think it's for frequent use.
I didn't use gloves and I have this specific smell on my hands which is not pleasant, even after washing them multiple times for two days now.
Both the PRO and the regular K2 are worth the money. It works best when you pass a brush on the rim while it is wet. It leaves a little brown mark on the tires, but it goes away with some tire care product. Be careful not to put it in a closed cabinet after use, it smells a little bad.
Great product!
I wanted to ask if anyone uses it on painted wheels with electrostatic paint because I have been using it for 2 years but now I painted them and I don't know if it's suitable, that's why I'm asking
Awesome product for its price. Cleans the rims perfectly, creating a deep red foam. The smell is really unbearable and if you wash it at home, it smells like a mix of cherry and sewage for days! Nevertheless, it's worth it!
The best thing it really does is make the rims look new with minimal rubbing, it just requires a lot of pressure with water to clean completely. It doesn't bother me the smell though, even though I wash in an open space, it's flawless
Awesome product. The result is truly exceptional, just like new. It does have an extreme smell, but it's okay because it's a chemical. I recommend using plastic gloves, a mask, and goggles for protection. We don't want to come into contact with such a strong chemical. Has anyone experienced white spots remaining on the rim after washing, like in the photo I uploaded last? If yes, how did you remove them?
Very good product, worth its money and more. I used it on very difficult wheels that had never been cleaned since 2010 when the car was purchased with a wheel cleaner. As for the smell that I read in some comments, I did not encounter any problem in an open area.
It does what it says and more. It's worth its money. Just be careful with rinsing as there may be residue left in some areas. I didn't experience any issues with the smell.
The rims become like new without much effort, you just spray it and let it work.
I wouldn't recommend it for every wash because it seems quite strong as a product, but only for use on very dirty rims.
I give it 4 out of 5 stars only because of the very bad smell it has, even after washing the car two days later, the cleaner still smells
I bought it for 12€ including shipping, even though I am loyal to Meguiars, after a lot of research I ended up with the excellent K2. The GS1200/2008 motorcycle has 80000 kilometers, I had never used anything for wheels before, the application was very easy, it smelled like bubblegum, I didn't scrub anything, I just left it for about 10 minutes, the amount of dirt it removed is unbelievable, the wheels, calipers, and brake pads became like new, also the screws and the rods on the bottom that were black became new too!!!!!!!
Very easy to use and effective. You spray the wheel, after 4-5 minutes when it turns this reddish color, you brush it with a wheel brush (recommended for perfect results) and rinse well with water.
I have been using the Bilt Hamber equivalent cleaner for years, but since I couldn't find it, I ended up with this one. It is very effective and has much better value for money! It has a similar, strong smell (something between cherries and bubblegum), needs to be applied with caution (avoid contact with eyes, etc.), and takes 2 to 3 minutes to take effect before rinsing. *It falls short in direct comparison to Bilt Hamber, but not by a significant margin.
One of the best wheel cleaners!
The only disadvantage, which doesn't really bother me, is its unpleasant smell.
It doesn't damage the wheel's varnish nor does it affect the brake pads.
In conclusion, I highly recommend it!
Coming from Felix and the basic Roton of the company, I decided to buy their "expensive" one as well. It delivers 100% of what it promises. If the rim has stubborn dirt, with a pass and some scrubbing with a brush (the K2 Scepter is a very good option), the rim shines. On the other hand, if it is not so dirty, simply spraying the spray on a dry rim, leaving it for a few minutes without drying, and rinsing with pressure. The result speaks for itself. The only negative thing I found is the smell (there is also a cherry-scented version), but of course, it is not a reason to give it fewer stars.
Although I haven't used any similar product before, I will say that it does what it promises. It also creates the nice effect that we see in the corresponding videos on YouTube, which turns the wheel red.
Also, it doesn't smell so bad. It has a strange aroma. Finally, it can also be used on the bodywork to remove iron particles.
Very good job! It cleaned the rims without scrubbing (with 5 minutes of application). Strong smell. It is good to wear a mask during use. I think it is value for money. Expect about 5-6 washes on the rims.
It cleans the dirt from the wheels and tires quite well. With minimal scrubbing, everything comes off. The only negative thing is its smell, which discourages you from using it at close range.
Classic Iron Remover with its characteristic smell. If you don't mind the unpleasant odor of these products, then it is very good and effective. Its price is the lowest and worth it.
