I use both and both are great in their own ways. I use p&s diluted in a foamer for the actual wheel, while I use adams undiluted on the tire. Usually 2 passes with some scrubbing take care of the browning on the tire. As for the wheel, I just have to foam it and use light agitation to get the wheel looking like new. I will say you do have the get the right ration when diluting to get that perfect cleaning action without overusing product
Nice demo. It’s been my go-to wheel and tire cleaner for a while. I just use it straight as I like how it clings (and cleans) full strength. I found when foaming I used more product and it wasn’t even as clean. It can dwell longer when full strength in my experimenting.
The lack of rust on the rotors after use seals the deal IMO. It’s a great product and excellent value.
Thank you for watching and commenting🙏 Products that work on both the wheel and tire are increasingly becoming what I reach for the most. So far, this is a better value than TW Hyper Foam and Adam’s Wheel Cleaner (although both of those work a bit better)
Well the price is what makes it attractive. I use it for wheels and tires that aren’t really dirty, and Adams for heavier jobs.
This works really good tires. It’s not the best for heavy caked on brake dust.
Brake buster is always in my arsenal. I’ll back it up with an iron remover if the wheels are really dirty.
Well explained and good demo. Thanks! 😀
Thank you 🙏
Used it for the first time last weekend. Cut it 3:1 in a HDX pump sprayer with the air hole punched in the tube. Didnt have any scotchbrite pads to make the "filter". It foamed up just fine and did a great job! This is my "go to" now.
It’s an amazing value when diluted. I’ve never tried to turn an HDX sprayer in a foamer but that sounds awesome
It’s good for maintenance but iron remover going to be the best option for neglected rims
My rim has the same residue your video ended with is that just a bad /damaged rim or brake dust ?
Do you think it's ok if I use Adam's Strip Wash on my wheels as a pre wash before I foam my wheels?
Is thjis safe to remove brake dust from body panels?
Honestly, this is my go to wheel and tire cleaner.
Very effective, not expensive and it foams like a mofo.
The lack of rust on my rotors is awesome. No rust dust on my black wheels 🙌
I really like it for the rust inhibitors. More companies should do the same thing. Do you use diluted or straight up?
@@TheCarDetailingChannel
100% agree!
I use it straight up. I just buy it buy the gallon and refill my spray bottle.
I bought the Griots wheel tire and mat cleaner but I think it’s too thick for a foamer. Dilution ratio is like 5:1 with water to make it work. I also used the griots pump sprayer. I think the Ik might be better. Thoughts ??
Not really. The IK foamer works better I find when using Brake Buster at 1:4 (same with the Adam’s)
After owning both p&s and Adams wheel & tire cleaner I've gone to the conclusion that Adams is one of the best for dirty tires and works really well even when diluted. P&s on the other hand is only good for cars that are maintained on a weekly basis that are not that filthy. Can be diluted also if not that dirty.
I think I might be coming to the same conclusion. The Adams wheel cleaner is definitely the stronger product.
@@TheCarDetailingChannel i might even go as far as saying that even a diluted Adams is better than a straight P&S product. You can't really compare a PH Balanced product vs a PH 13 product. Diluting the Adams at about 4 to 1 can still have a good PH of about 9 which is still pretty good in my book.
I’m a newbie when it comes to detailing. Just got the IK Foam Pro 2 for my tires. Used it with Adams and P&S. There’s really no comparison IMO. Adams is a much better product. Took 3 rounds for each tire on my GFs car when using P&S diluted 3-1. I’m quickly learning that Adams products are where it’s at. Love the graphene tire dressing.
@@DMCnME Adams graphene tire dressing is good, even the regular one is awesome. I use the regular one and it's good. It doesn't leave that oily feel on the tires like armer all does.
Never tried adams but I do have a gallon of this but I might switch as it doesn’t clean all that well and I use a drill brush setup and it cleans good but I noticed the 5 dollar turtle wax wheels cleaner will break down the dirt on the tire and turn brown but p&s doesnt
Man I wish there was a spray on and rinse off option. No scrubbing
Retired 70 years old fixed income just getting by. Will get this best value out there
I respect that. Expenses are getting out hand. I’m feeling the pinch myself. Might have to ease off of buying new stuff for a bit
I usually diluted 1:1 using destilled water in a IK2 foam sprayer. Or MTM foam cannon
Oh I definitely want to try it in my foam cannon to see how it does
Thanks for the review, it is the only rust inhibitors in aa tire & wheel cleaner that I am aware of? And is very reasonable priced, plus it is made in the US!
You're welcome. Thank you for watching. I think Turtle Wax Hyper Foam contains rust inhibitors as well
@@TheCarDetailingChannel Thanks for your reply, I was not aware of this product from TW. The cost is $35.00 (US Gallon) so comparable to Brake Buster. I should try it when my supply runs out.
I'd recommend trying p&s knock off and adding some iron buster for extra cleaning power 👍
Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll give it a shot. I saw a video by someone that mixed some iron remover in with brake buster… I can’t remember who made it though
I’ve been through them all or at least 99% of wheel cleaners, I have 19inch CSL alloys in my e46 m3 which are a nightmare to clean generally, how can there not be a product you spray on and it cleans the wheel on rinse 99% and melts away the dirt and dust? It’s an absolute chore every time, no matter what happens all the tools are out or about just to clean my wheels, so no matter what your as well just buying a 5L bilberry etc. Thanks for the video.
Product manufactures are a little too cautious when formulating their chemicals. They want to be careful not to create a product that will destroy wheels in the wrong hands; I think it ultimately comes down to liability
This is my favorite and the only cleaner I trust on my carbon ceramic brakes.
I find that 1:4 in a foamer makes the foamer froth at it's mouth. It seems to foam well at 1:8
Mine froths at the mouth a bit at 1:4 as well but I’ve gotten used it since it works just fine
@@TheCarDetailingChannel oh I mean it basically only froths at the mouth. There's no spray pattern.
could you do koch chemie maigc wheel cleaner?
Yes, I’ll order some
P&S as a whole makes decent "entry level" detailing products. I used them when i started up and never had any serious complaints. Recently however i feel like theyve fallen off, and i have since replaced most/all P&S products with gyeon
I’ve only just starting experimenting with their products. The line up appears to be more tailored to professional weekend warrior detailers with the gallon sizes and highly diluteable concentrates. Gyeon makes great products. I’ve recently started looking into 3D products as well
3D One Compound & Polish is 2nd to none, their yellow wheel cleaner is decent, but definitely not on Par with Adams IMO.
Can you please tell me how do you get it to foam? I purchased this and I spray it on the tires and rims. After that I wait 1-2 min as per instructions, and then I use a brush, but no foam. I diluted it half and half. So in a spray bottle I put half and then half water.
How come it does not foam for me?
Out of a regular spray bottle, this product will not foam. You have to use a foaming sprayer or a foam sprayer like the IK Foam Pro 2
@@TheCarDetailingChannel Thank you...I noticed on the small spray bottle it says intense foam action. The Gallon does not say that.
I just received my IK Foam Pro 2 in the mail and i tried it with this and it makes such a big difference.
Thanks for your reply!
Everytime I use P&S Brakebuster diluted 1:6, I use a foamer to coat the entire rim, spend a good portion using wheel brushes and rim brushes and after it's dried, there are always a few spots on the rims still coated with dust. I'm starting to wonder how effective this PH level 11 product is. The goal is to not use it full strength, otherwise I might as well go with Adams Wheel & Tire since it has a higher PH and is just as cost effective when it goes on sale ($22 sometimes)
The Adam’s wheel cleaner is my favourite so far. I dilute it and still get great performance out of it. Brake buster is a little bit cheaper. I’ll be comparing the two to see which one performs better dollar for dollar
I am with you. It's not strong enough diluted. I am using it up until it's gone and buying Adam's instead.
Dilute it maybe 1:4 and experiment with it, could find the right dilution to suit your needs.
Brake buster is essentially a light APC with corrosion inhibitors from memory the ph is around 11 though not 8-9. Personally I get better results using Koch Chemie Greenstar 3;1, which performs similarly to straight brakebuster.
@@KiranPatel-fk1pg Thanks for correcting me, you are right. I also doubled checked Adams W&T and it is 13, Idk why I had thought P&S was so low.
This is fine for tires but it’s ineffective on Euro brake dust.
amazing. though a little pricey. Adams Wheel and tire cleaner just as good. SiperClean APC degreaser. very good too... and for 10$ a gallon.. diluted 3 to 1. 3 gallons of wheel and tire cleaner. its the cheapest alternative.
I love the Adam’s Wheel and Tire cleaner for an all wheel cleaner. For just tires, nothing beats Spray Nine, the original white wall cleaner.
Sold my IK sprayer and just use sprayer. Way too much pumping and annoying to refill the IK
That’s fair. All these pump sprayers have ups and downs. For me, my hand starts hurting a lot with repeated trigger pulls. I’ll be installing a schrader valve into my foamers. Thanks for watching
Ok now you when for straight to cut why you will never know always unless acid base never Cut
BB is ok at best, and very expensive. I’ve been using DIY Detail All Clean diluted 15/1. Works better, and costs much less.
Does All Clean work on the wheels and tires? If so, is it better than BB at cleaning side walls? Either way, i'll add it the cart and try it.
Wow the curb rash. No amount of cleaning can remove that
I have no break dust on my Tesla
Regen braking is an awesome thing. Thanks for watching
I’ll never buy it again
What would you go with instead?
@@TheCarDetailingChannel Purple power
SACATO works better than Adams and brake buster.. no comparison, SACATO is safe on paint and instantly melts everything away
I've never heard of SACATO before. Where do I find it?
@@TheCarDetailingChannel surprising, Walmart has it by the super clean... I'm telling you, that cleaner is on another level entirely and I've used everything there is....
