If you have alloy wheels, you know they add a far more stylized and polished look than standard steel wheels. To keep that shine, learn how to clean these wheels the right way.

First, What Is Alloy?

Alloy refers to a combination of two or more metals. Most alloy wheels consist of magnesium, nickel and aluminum. Aluminum is far better protected against rusting or corrosion than standard steel wheels, guaranteeing that your investment will stand the test of time.

Next, What About Cleaning?

First, remove dirt and brake dust using your hose with a high-pressure nozzle. Next, spray the wheel with an alloy wheel cleaner. You can purchase these at your local auto shop. They’re non-acidic to protect the wheel’s polish. Only spray one wheel at a time. Using a soft-bristle brush, scrub away any remaining dirt, then rinse the wheels and towel dry.

Finally, How Do I Make Them Shine?

Some people wash and wax their wheels using the same wax they use for the rest of the car. Others use a premium metal wax. Either works fine; just be prepared to do a lot of rubbing for the shine to manifest.

I was blown away with how my car looked after I had it detailed at Henry’s. I will definitely be taking all my cars here when they need a detailing and have no issues recommending Henry’s to all my friends.

The guys at Henry’s did an amazing job with my car! I have two very furry pups and a child who is disgusting. My car was taken to Henry’s and when we picked it up I actually didn’t recognize it at first! It was gorgeous, like it had just come off the showroom floor. They did such a great job cleaning the car up! It was so nice I made my daughter take her shoes off before getting in the car! Thank you so much for all the hard work!

I left my car sitting for awhile without realizing my kids had left food on the back seat, and came back to mold growing on the upholstery. I called Henry's and they were able to see me that same day, and when I picked the car up that night it looked and smelled brand new. And it was a yucky, sticky car before. Everybody was friendly and professional and the whole experience was simple. Would recommend, will be going again myself.

Henry's did an outstanding interior and exterior detail service of my vehicle. When I picked it up it, my car was in better condition than when I bought it from the dealership. Over Thanksgiving weekend my brother had vomited in my new car all over the passenger side and down inside the window well. My particular service involved the door of my car needing to be taken apart for detailing of vomit that rolled down with the window. Henry and his team carefully and professionally took apart my car where needed to complete the full detail and remove all of the vomit. I found them to be expert in performance, knowledge of products to use, and how to best care for my situation. The smell is completely gone and my car was put back together correctly! They managed to squeeze me in before I had to head back home. The best part about this business is they are friendly and genuine to each customer. I felt truly taken care of and didn't have to worry if I was going to be taken advantage of like at a dealership. They care about their work and the people that come to them. Plus it feels great to support a family business! Henry's your man!

Excellent detailing on my Subaru. It was filthy and I was not sure some of the stains would come out. When i picked it up it looked brand new! This is my second detailing with Henry’s and I definitely recommend them.
