Quick Facts – KiurLab Acid Wheely
- Brand: KiurLab
- Model: Kiu000073
- Volume: 1L
- Type: Highly concentrated acid-based wheel cleaner
- Dilution: 1:10 to 1:20 depending on level of soiling
- Application: Steel and aluminium wheels
- Effect: Dissolves brake dust, rust and mineral deposits
KiurLab Acid Wheely dissolves baked-on brake dust, rust and mineral deposits on steel and aluminium wheels using a highly concentrated acid formula that is diluted according to the level of soiling. The product has been developed for professional use where standard wheel cleaners fall short. See more wheel cleaners in our range for different requirements.
The formula is designed to penetrate porous wheel surfaces and break down contamination that would otherwise remain after driving in city traffic or on track days. Once diluted, the solution is applied with a spray gun and then worked into hard-to-reach areas with a brush.
After treatment, a neutralising step with an alkaline product is always required to balance the pH value of the wheel surface and prevent corrosion.
What sets Acid Wheely apart?
Acid Wheely stands out through its high concentration, meaning a small amount is sufficient for many dilutions. It is formulated to handle both steel and aluminium wheels, but always requires a dilution test on a hidden area before full application.
The product is intended for vehicle detailing and professional maintenance, where precision and efficiency in removing stubborn dirt are essential.
Where Acid Wheely performs best
- Detail cleaning of heavily soiled steel and aluminium wheels
- Removal of baked-on brake dust after long distances
- Treatment of rust damage and mineral deposits on wheel surfaces
- Pre-treatment before polishing or Coating of wheels

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Does KiurLab Acid Wheely work on painted wheels?
It is always recommended to test KiurLab Acid Wheely on a small, hidden area before full application on painted wheels. The acid formula is powerful and may in some cases affect sensitive paint layers, which is why a dilution test is necessary before using the product on the entire surface.
How should KiurLab Acid Wheely be stored and handled safely?
KiurLab Acid Wheely should be stored out of reach of children and always kept locked, in its original 1L packaging. Handling requires protective gloves, protective clothing, and eye and face protection, as the product is corrosive and can cause serious skin and eye damage.
What is the difference between KiurLab Acid Wheely and alkaline wheel cleaners?
Unlike alkaline wheel cleaners, KiurLab Acid Wheely attacks contamination through an acid-based reaction, making it particularly effective against baked-on brake dust and rust that alkaline products struggle to dissolve. However, a neutralising step with an alkaline product is always required after use, such as alkaline wheel cleaners from KiurLab, to balance the pH value of the wheel surface.
