Chemical Guys Diablo Gel Wheel Cleaner Gallon

Chemical Guys Diablo Gel is a non-acid, water-based wheel cleaner in a thick gel formula. The gel clings to the wheel surface and dwells longer than a liquid cleaner, releasing brake dust, road grime, and caked-on deposits without harsh chemistry. The 3.79 litre concentrate yields up to 15 litres of ready-to-use product at a 3:1 dilution, making the gallon format highly cost-effective for regular detailing sessions.

Which wheels

Diablo Gel is compatible with all common wheel types: painted aluminium, anodized, chrome, powder-coated, carbon fibre lips, and vinyl-wrapped wheels. The formula is safe on paint, glass, and plastic components when cleaning around the wheel. Pair with a soft wheel brush for best results on heavy brake dust build-up.

What's inside

1 bottle of Chemical Guys Diablo Gel Wheel Rim Cleaner, 3.79 litres (1 gallon), concentrated non-acid gel formula. Spray bottle not included.

Why this product

• Non-acid and non-caustic: safe on aluminium, anodized, chrome, powder coat, and vinyl wrap

• Gel formula with suspension technology: clings to the surface, no agitation needed on lightly soiled wheels

• 3.79 litre concentrate: up to 15 litres ready-to-use at a 3:1 ratio, approximately 30 to 45 washes

• Water-based: rinses completely clean, no chemical residue left on the wheel

• Flexible dilution: 3:1 for normal use, 6:1 for heavy brake dust build-up

How to use

1. Allow wheels to cool and mix Diablo Gel 3:1 with water in a spray bottle. (1 part Diablo Gel to 3 parts water for normal use. For heavy build-up, use a stronger mix of 4:1 or 6:1.)

2. Spray the diluted gel generously onto the dry or slightly damp wheel. (Cover the entire wheel surface including spokes. Work in shade to prevent premature drying.)

3. Allow 3 to 5 minutes dwell time then agitate spokes with a wheel brush. (On lightly soiled wheels, agitation is optional. Use a soft brush for stubborn brake dust.)

4. Rinse thoroughly with strong water pressure and dry with a microfibre towel. (A pressure washer removes residue most efficiently. Dry afterwards to prevent water spots.)
