Just bought a bottle of this along with some Black Magic Tire Wet and both bottles are almost half gone. Cost me around $12 for both and so it looks like I won't be buying this stuff too often especially since I only get 2 or 3 uses outta it.

The Megs Hot Rims is some pretty decent stuff though. Cleaned them up really well but I think I gotta take the rims off and really get into em to get all the grim and brake dust off the back.

The key to doing chrome wheels is doing them LAST :) That way, you don't spray them as you wash your car and chase your ass later cleaning water spots. What I do to get my dollar's worth is spray it on the wheels with a few sprays, then use a damp wash mit with a JUST little bit of soap. Works great, you save $ and get the benefit of the acidic cleaner to do the hard work.
