Subject:      A question about washing old alloy wheels.
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

 Dear listers:

 (This is my second send of this question to the list.  I
 apologize for the double use of bandwidth.  I hosed
 up my first send.)

 I need some wheel washing advice. I've gone on a
 binge and bought twelve alloy wheels for my syncro van,
 assuming I'll need five summer and five winter and
 two will be bad .... yah ... it was a binge ...they
 were cheap.

 Now I want to wash them as efficiently and quickly and
 with as little work as possible and without damaging
 them beyond what nicks and scrapes they already show.

 Shall I use a high pressure washer?  Simple Green and
 elbow grease?  A special wheel washing mix?  What?

 The insides of the wheels (facing in toward the center
 line of the van) are the sides in need of the serious
 cleaning, of course.

 John
