Simple Green doesn't have that warning. The only items you can't use Simple Green on are "plastic instrument panels, leather, suede, unfinished wood, opals, or pearls"

I remember when Simple Green first came out(many moons ago) the information sheet states, 'You can brush your teeth with it'.
So you can clean your wheels and brush your teeth at the same time.LOL..

Hey Rus,
Does the orange blast really work without scrubbing? If so I am going to have to try it.

Wheel Cleaner

Try Wheel Brite (or Wheel Magic). Cuts brake dust and grime down but you will still need to use a rag or brush to hit those 'tween spots. I think I got the last bottle at either Wal Mart or Auto Zone.

Yeah Orange Blast works every time. I purchased my Exped used & it had brake dust on the chrome center cap that the dealer's prep guys couldn't remove. After about three seperate times with the Orange blast, even those came clean.
