Not durable enough for outdoor use

Contrary to what is claimed. This brush is not very durable. The brush core, which comes out of the handle, only tore a hole in the brush on the second use. The brush material is certainly effective at scrubbing without scratching, but it needs to be made with better internal reinforcement so that the core is virtually unable to poke a hole in the brush under normal use.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Wrinkled packaging

Ideal for cleaning wheels

Cleans the wheels very well and since there is no metal on it there is less chance of scratching the wheel. It dries fairly quickly and is very soft. Firstly, you must be careful when cleaning the area where the caliper seals are located or any sharp parts in that area as this can damage the microfiber and most likely tear it if used too aggressively in these areas. Mine got caught on the edge of the pad and pulled on some fibers. Otherwise I like it.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • faded

Reliable and works well

Based on other reviews I was concerned about durability but to be honest it works great and showed no signs of falling apart. I use it to clean 5 spokes on my BMW. I spray the cleaner on both rims and the brush and get to work. Flush between the wheels. Except for the gap between the calipers, I can almost reach the inside of the bike. Unless you're a raw Neanderthal, it shouldn't break or fall apart with use. Take your time and use a good rim cleaner like Meguir's Hot Rims to get rid of…

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Unsafe

Not suitable for detailed rims.

Nice length, hands don't get as dirty as with short handles. However, the angle/density is not appropriate for the parts where the spokes meet the outer rim. It can't clean those areas, it just crumples and you have to go back and hand wipe the entire rim. Wool wheeled wipes were much more effective at cleaning smaller spaces. You really need one more tool in your car cleaning kit to get rid of these stains. So in short. Not good for parts rims, but probably great for rims with large clearances

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • A few little things

A great idea. Bad performance. Product broke before first use

Looks great doesn't it? Seems like a great idea. and that's a good idea. except that this product started to fall apart for me before I even used it for the first time. the inner core is hard rubber. If you are busy using it on wheels, too much pressure will bend the top and break the inner rubber tube. I have a hole in it. So, use it once? No, don't buy that. I don't even survive once and I had no intention of making it strong, great idea, poor execution

Pros
  • Extended length and oversized cone for easy cleaning of hard-to-reach areas
Cons
  • I'll add later

Works well if it matches your wheels.

I bought this to clean the wheels on my F-Pace and my wife's Santa Fe. It works a lot better on their wheels than mine just because the fins in my wheels are too thin for the brush to get in. I wasn't aware that there was quite a stiff foam underneath the microfiber so I figured it would crush and firm our wheels, but unfortunately it doesn't work as well on my 'ok' as it does on hers. If it goes into the holes in your drives it will most likely work fine, but it didn't work for me. The quality

Pros
  • A 2.5" x 14.3" VIKING Premium Metal Free Rim and Wheel Brush
Cons
  • Dear

Not bad for the price, but not very well thought out

Well I've just finished my first use. My wheels have a lot of tight slots and this helped eliminate them. There's a bit of a learning curve as this is a tapered foam brush, so you'll need to paint hard-to-reach areas a specific way. I figured it out after about 5 holes and the rest of the wheels was ready in about 5-7 minutes (there are about 20 holes in each wheel so it takes me longer than a normal wheel so I bought that first.) Seems so to be Good quality and the handle is of good quality…

Pros
  • Soft foam core with microfiber cover and plastic handle for a flexible, durable, scratch-resistant tire brush
Cons
  • Useless features

What is the best way to clean brake calipers?

I stumbled across these while looking for something different and they looked promising. Pros: + Reasonable price $6.41, free shipping if I bought 2 of them. + Metal-free heavy sponge with microfiber coating. + Handle for a secure grip + Tapered shape, measures 1-1/2" at the end, 2-1/2" at the side of the handle. The cleaning area is approximately 8 inches long from the tip to the beginning of the handle. Cons: - We've used them twice and the wide end seems too wide for our vehicles. - The…

Pros
  • Heavy duty microfiber brush pads add flexibility and maneuverability for safe and effective tire and rim cleaning
Cons
  • Great price
