anyone have experience with using a vapor master or vx5000 on tires and wheels? I have always wanted to know if using a steamer would remove that brown out of tires that is so hard to remove with soap and a brush. wanted to see some videos if you guys have any. possibly of something where they slowly show the tires and wheels being cleaned off, or the dirt melting off (if it does infact melt off) thanks
Leave it to Nica! http://www.detailingbliss.com/forum/f94/how-use-steamer-nicas-way-6830.html 1st vid is on wheels, wells and rims.
I have a Vaporclean Gaia steamer/extractor and I do not use it on wheels. A steamer can be used for a lot of things....some make sense, some do not. I want a tool that is going to be both quick AND effective. I don't find that using the steam on wheels is any quicker, and, in fact, I think it's slower. If you want to get that brown shit out of your tires, use ARO or Zep Citrus or their purple APC. Quick, effective, easy, done.
Yeah I dont know if that will do the best job at removing the brown from tires. I find using a product like tardis on the tires removes EVERYTHING.
