Regular, thorough wheel cleaning is imperative for all
vehicles. Brake dust is highly corrosive to wheel finishes, and it is
generated each and every time you apply the brakes. Brake dust is made of
brake pad dust and red hot metal filings from the rotor. This volatile
mixture eats through protective wheel finishes and pits the metal,
permanently eliminating that bright metallic shine.
The braking systems in many vehicles generate a lot of
brake dust. Coincidentally, these vehicles often have the expensive alloy
wheels with intricate spoke designs. These wheels look unbelievable when
they're clean, but how are you going to keep them clean?
The Speed Master Wheel Brush. This advanced
wheel brush has everything you want in a quality detail brush and much more.
The staff and I at Palm Beach Motoring studied all the various brushes on
the market and compared their pros and cons. Ultimately I took our wish list
for the perfect wheel brush to Dean Henderson at EZ Detail Brush, Inc. Dean
had already created the ultimate motorcycle detailing brush with the EZ
Detail Brush. With a few modifications, I knew we could create the ultimate
auto detail brush.
Dean manufactured the Speed Master Wheel Brush
to my exact specifications, right down to the hot rod red bristles. In
addition, the Speed Master Wheel Brush has a thicker, reinforced
stem. It maintains its flexibility but the new stem is more rugged for
frequent use on auto wheels. The bristles are slightly feathered on the ends
to gently clean delicate wheel finishes, such as coated or plated wheels,
without scratching.
Here are the benefits of the Speed Master Wheel
Brush:
- Soft, nonabrasive 2 inch bristles. Whether the
wheels are aluminum or clear coated, they can be scratched by the wrong
brush. The Speed Master Wheel Brush features nylon Nylex bristles
that are both flexible and durable. The end of each bristle is feathered to
provide an extra gentle touch on delicate wheel finishes. Use the
Speed Master Wheel Brush on highly polished aluminum, chrome, stainless,
clear coated, and painted wheels with confidence.
- Patented memory bristles regain their shape. Detail brushes can lose their shape and their functionality over time
because they're pressed into the grooves and crevices of your car. The
Speed Master Wheel Brush has special memory bristles that regain
their shape after every use. Simply rinse the brush in hot water and hang it
upside down to dry. The bristles will settle back into their original shape,
just like new. Memory bristles allow the Speed Master Wheel Brush to
remain effective when other brushes fall short.
- Chemical resistant.The Speed Master
Wheel Brush's synthetic bristles can withstand all wheel cleaners and
degreasers, even powerful aluminum wheel cleaners. Whereas natural bristles
can eventually become dry and brittle, the bristles on the Speed
Master Wheel Brush stay smooth, soft, and flexible.
- Fits all wheel designs.The Speed Master
Wheel Brush may look like a big brush, but it fits in the smallest spaces.
Clean between wire spokes and even between the brake caliper and the wheel!
The flexible bristles easily fold against the stem to a ½ inch thickness.
When you're finished cleaning the wheels, rinse the Speed Master
Wheel Brush in hot water and hang to dry to restore the brush's original
shape.
- Reinforced, flexible stem. Many of today's wheel
designs give you full visibility through the wheel. Brake dust literally has
nowhere to hide! The Speed Master Wheel Brush is the solution. The
upgraded, vinyl-coated wire stem flexes to reach all the way through the
wheel to clean the edge on the other side! The 13 inch stem is of a heavier
gauge wire to give it flexibility and stability. The vinyl coating protects
the wheel from scratching. In fact, if you pull the bristles apart, you can
see that the wire is completely covered for the entire length of the brush.
- Safe bonded tip. The tip of the Speed
Master Wheel Brush is coated in vinyl to protect the wheel from contact. No
part of the internal wire stem is visible so there's no chance of it
scratching the wheel as long as the bonded tip stays in tact.
- Knuckle guard protects your hands. A rubber guard above the handle helps protect your hands from cleaners or scrapes,
because we know you really get into your work. An ergonomic handle makes cleaning comfortable.
