Any recommendation for mobile wheel detailers?
Hello, I am looking for someone who can wash and detail my winter wheels as they are kind of gross after many winter seasons. I couldn’t find time to do it myself. Any recommendations? Hopefully someone mobile at a reasonable price, doesn’t have to be the cheapest.

Thanks!

Go to Canadian tire and get some wheel acid.

I can wash my entire truck in less than 10 minutes at a self wash place... Sounds like you're just lazy home slice.

Now, i'm not going to make the phone calls for you. But here's a good place to start: Mobile Wheel Detailing

I tried sonax it wasn't that good like they claimed. I just purchased Nick's all purpose car cleaner. Check out their Instagram page

I washed my cars evey one or two months but I was never able to get the stain off those winter wheels. I also tried Sonax plus as well and it didnt work. I think they need really hard scrubbing or polishing. Hence the reason for professional help. I will look into wheel acid and maybe post some pictures later. Thanks for all the suggestions so far.
