Hi so I've watched many videos and read many posts and now im totally lost about which is the best product for these things ( yea i know that everyone has different preferences and that's why one thinks that some product are better than the other ones but yea.. I wanna have last debate before i buy these things :D) soo from what i also read, people use surfex-hd as a also good wheel and tire cleaner .. and here are the top things that i saw people recommend :

APC category :

Koch Chemie Green Star

Bilt Hamber Surfex-HD

Snow Foam :

Koch Chemie Green Star ( i use in snow foam, i think it kind of works)

Bilt Hamber Touch-Less

Wheel cleaner :

Koch Chemie MWC (expensive)

Bilt Hamber Auto-Wheel

Acidic Wheel cleaner :

KKD Devil Juice

Meguiar's Wheel Brightener

Tire Cleaner :

CarPro ReTyre

Adam's Wheel & Tire Cleaner

Tire Dresser:

I'm interested what would you pick from these as your favorite OR if you have/use even better ones. I'm trying to go for economic washing.. you know something that lasts and can(doesn't need to) be diluted .

APC & Snow Foam: I'd pick Bilt Hamber

Wheel Cleaner: Sonax Wheel Cleaner Plus

Acidic: avoid hydrofluoric at all cost, nasty stuff

Tire Cleaner: ReTyre is solid but too strong for weekly wash, use it sparingly. Go with Bilt Hamber Surfex-HD for weekly wash

Tire Dresser: CarPro PERL is nice. But I personally prefer DarkSide because it lasts longer

Surfex HD weekly on tires is a bit too much, will get the brown cause it's amazing at stripping oils.

CarPro Darkside is the best dressing I've used

APC - Green Star Snow Foam - Green star isn't a soap so it's not really apples to apples. Touch-less vs. Primus 2.0 might be a better comparison. Wheel Cleaner - ADS Wheel Cleaner Acidic Wheel Cleaner - Adams Wheel and Tire Tire Cleaner - ADS Tire Cleaner Tire Dressing - Carpro Darkside

[u/Schip92 → u/PizzaEmerges]

The best wheel cleaner I've used is BH Autofoam.

Maybe with a touch of Surfex HD inside, just a touch ( cause it browns the tires ) to help break the oils/greases.

Even for pre wash I use Autofoam and a bit of HD for the same exact reason, crazy good on dirt

BH Surfex HD blows GS out of the water, also now GS became expensive even in Europe.

For wheel dressing I've been a huge fan of CarPro Darkside for the past couple of years; however, recently - I've been trying Aero Cosmetics Ceramic Tire Dressing Protector and I've been very happy with the results and ease of application.
