Instructions for Washing and Cleaning Wheels

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Wheel

Washing your car's wheels and making them shine is a priority for anyone who loves keeping their vehicle clean. The wheels, in particular, are the most challenging part to clean, as they tend to be contaminated not only by regular road dirt but also by brake dust. Therefore, they should be treated with specific cleaners that ensure cleanliness without damaging the finish. Start by wetting the wheels, then spray the appropriate cleaner evenly using a sprayer. Scrub with a brush and rinse, and if necessary, repeat the process.
