OxyClean: my best friend

I decided to wash the bird yesterday and found some nasty caked-on, baked-on crap on my right rear wheel. (GTA Black rim). I tried to scrub it off with a detail brush, but with no success. I took the wheel off and decided to spray some oxy clean on it here in the shop. This morning I went out to find that the stuff on the wheel wiped right off without any effort.
I think the 'stuff' was dried Soda, I remember seeing a squished can near my right rear at the store a couple of weeks ago. There was also some splatters of the soda on my quarter panel, So I took the oxyclean and sprayed it on there with good results.

This stuff is definately a life saver. I was worried the soda wouldn't come off without the body paint also. I suppose I was very lucky.

I've tried it, and it works pretty good. You really need to saturate the grime with the spray to get better results. Just an hour of sitting on the grime takes most of it off.


this is gooooood stuff.
