So many complainers. Geez. I sold the P21S and S100 product lines from my online store for more than 10 years without any complaints... mostly to guys driving $100k+ exotic cars. If you screw up your wheels with S100, it's because you didn't follow the instructions!

Rinse first.
Agitate.
Rinse again.

If it damaged your wheels, it's because you let the cleaner dry and probably didn't agitate with a brush or a sponge. It's not a spray on, hose off cleaner.

Looks like spray on hose off to me.

I put that **** on my Softail back in the 90's & the white etching is still there.

Been detailing autos for 15 years.
since you are a pro I have question for you on black gloss powdercoat cleaner. Lately I rode in rain and this messed up my primary pretty bad. I was polishing this cover for hood 2 hrs to get it back to look decent but would like to know how I can clean it efficiently and how to protect the surface so I dont deal with this in the future?

I've been using S100 for several years now. Very happy with it, just followed the directions, cold bike, spray it on, hose it off with a lot of water and as high a pressure as I can get out of my hose, then wipe it dry with a micro fiber cloth.

Don't let it sit, don't use it on a hot bike, don't use a leaf blower to blow dry it. Just follow the directions.
