This comment for the win! 🍻 Going on 12 years at a Premiere Porsche dealer and you’d be surprised how badly the wrong car washes, wheel cleaners, and God forbid tire shine treatments that ruin the finish on wheels, calipers, lug bolts/nuts, and tire sidewall cracking.

Hell one of the largest national dealer vendors tried getting shops in our area to switch to a new version of brake cleaner, and it was literally melting the seals in the Wurth brake clean spray bottles! We also got the wrong wheel cleaner once and luckily my boss and I were there that day so we of course when WTF we gotta check if this is bad for our cars or not…tested it on a totaled car at our body shop located behind us and damn it might have been straight up acid.

Lot of those products are too harsh, especially if they advertise will remove brake dust or bugs without scrubbing or the like, then it’s usually too good to be true and gonna mess your car up either soon or long term if you keep using the bad stuff. Like how no detailer will use Armor All! 😉
