How to Clean Motorcycle Wheels
- 1). Take off all jewelry and watches to prevent brushing them along the bike and scratching it.
- 2). Hose down your wheels to remove all excess dirt and sand. Use a good nozzle with a strong stream of water. Keep the stream away from your brakes and clutch to prevent contaminating fluids.
- 3). Dilute motorcycle-specific soap, Showbike Spray Wash or Detail Devil's Cycle Wash, with water in a bucket (see directions on the packaging for the proper ratio). Scrub wheels with the solution, using a soft brush like a dish brush. Rinse and repeat if necessary.
- 4). Dry the wheels with soft, non-abrasive terry cloth rags.
- 5). Protect your wheels from cracking with tire dressing. Apply a generous amount of tire dressing like Detail Devil's Tire Dressing on a sponge and rub over tire. Allow dressing to absorb for 20 minutes. Buff the tires with a chamois.
