cleaning wide whites

I tried some Oxy-Clean laundry stain remover (the billy mays stuff) and it worked really well

 

I'm guessing he meant one of the SMOOTH bricks? I can see how that would be just abrasive enough to take off a little surface rubber, but jeez there must be ten thousand better cleaners on the market by now.

 

Wet,
spray Simple Green,
alittle scrub with a brush,
rinse.
No repeating necessary.

 

I use the SOS pads with the blue soap in them. Works very good.

 

OK - I was skeptical.. But holy ****! these things are MAGIC.

Before:


Filthy!!

I was planning on using the Simple Green as suggested above, but I started with the erasers and they worked great.

- I was using the generic, Target brand ones, I was able to clean about 2 tires per eraser...


uno mas:


A little Maguires Quick Detailer on the wheels and away I go!

SOS pads is the best you will throw the other **** out

 

I've always used SOS before, but my Coker Cl***ic radials got really scratched up. Almost like fine cuts in the whitewall. Like an idiot, I used Bleche Wite on them a few times & the whitewall started to check & crack. But I think the scratches were from the SOS pads. Now, when they get dirty, the dirt collects in the scratches. Now I use Simple Green. I'll have to try the Eraser.

 

Wow. I thought my whitewalls had scratches. I got to see yours after you try that brick!

 

Magic eraser is the best / simple green is OK too.

+1 for Comet Cleanser and a big scrub brush!

 

Ok here is the best clean for whites do to grease handprints etc. Wd-40!! Use a clean cotton rag, spray the rag and whipe one way,dont backup this takes grease right off.

 

Last fall (2011) I started using westley's bleche-wite on my BFG silvertown wide whites, they looked great so I've been using it exclusively since. My sidewalls started showing fine cracking and it's gotten worse over the course of this summer, now they look kind of grey. I spoke with Coker and they said Westley's Bleche-wite will dry out your tires.

WARNING: WESTLEY'S BLECHE-WITE (black Magic brand) WILL DRY OUT YOUR TIRES!

My vote is for Spray Nine. My wide whites were glowing white for 3 years using spray nine and now they look like **** after a year of using Bleche-wite. That's $1000 in ruined white walls.
