Vera has very dirty wheels. The rear is badly covered in dirt and oil that splashes off the chain.
It's a real pain in the proverbial to keep clean. I did some googling and found a test from one of the bike magazines. I skipped the bumph and went to the table where each product they tested was rated for damage and how good it cleaned.
I was particularly interested on wheel cleaners that could get oil off. Only R&G and Unlimited Passion scored 10 for cleaning (with agitation) and a high score for spray and leave it for a bit!
Unfortunately I couldn't find anyone selling UP "Ungrease" online or even a shop with a website I could try. I did find another UP product that is supposed to degrease on Amazon.
So I ordered a can. It's not cheap but if it works it will be a miracle. If not, it's another can to add to the loads I have on the shelf in the garage!
It will also come in handy for keeping the Kettle wheels clean. Even better if it can be used all over the bike.
