Koch Chemie Finisher Wheelking is an acid-free wheel cleaner (iron remover) developed for professional use on all types of wheels. The product effectively dissolves burnt-in brake dust, greasy dirt, and metallic deposits without attacking the paint or sensitive surfaces.

The formula contains reactive components that change colour to red upon contact with iron particles – a clear visual indication that the cleaning action is active. This so-called bleeding effect makes it easy to confirm that the product is working and that dirt particles are being dissolved.

The practical 500 ml spray bottle with atomiser enables precise application directly onto the wheel, including inner sections and hard-to-reach surfaces. See more Koch Chemie products for car care in our range.

What is Finisher Wheelking and why choose it?

Koch Chemie Finisher Wheelking is an acid-free wheel cleaner with a built-in iron remover that reacts chemically with iron oxide particles from brake dust and metallic deposits. The acid-free pH level means the product is gentle on painted, chromed, and polished wheel surfaces, as well as on Ceramic Coating and quartz-based protective coatings.

Unlike acid-based wheel cleaners, Finisher Wheelking does not risk dulling the surface, causing corrosion, or damaging existing protective coatings. The visual colour indicator also provides immediate confirmation that the product is actively dissolving dirt, which is valuable in professional detailing environments where efficiency and verifiability are important.

Where is this product suitable?

• Painted aluminium wheels
• High-quality chromed and polished wheels
• Classic steel wheels
• Wheels protected with Ceramic Coating or quartz-based coatings

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does Koch Chemie Finisher Wheelking work on wheels with Ceramic Coating?

Yes, Koch Chemie Finisher Wheelking is acid-free and safe to use on wheels protected with Ceramic Coating or quartz-based coatings. The neutral pH level means the product does not break down or damage existing protective coatings. Apply Finisher Wheelking to a cool wheel, allow to dwell for 2–5 minutes, and rinse thoroughly with pressurised water.

What volume and dwell time does Koch Chemie Finisher Wheelking have?

Koch Chemie Finisher Wheelking is supplied in a 500 ml spray bottle with atomiser. The recommended dwell time is 2–5 minutes depending on the level of soiling. Important: the product must not be allowed to dry on the surface during the dwell time. For heavy brake dust deposits, a wheel brush may be used to agitate the surface mechanically before rinsing with a generous amount of pressurised water.

What sets Koch Chemie Finisher Wheelking apart from other wheel cleaners?

Koch Chemie Finisher Wheelking combines acid-free cleaning power with a built-in iron remover and visual reaction indicator. Unlike acid-based wheel cleaners, Finisher Wheelking does not attack paintwork, chrome surfaces, or existing protective coatings. The red colour indicator that activates upon contact with iron particles provides direct and measurable proof that the product is working actively – something that is particularly valuable in professional detailing environments.
