What is an angled wheel brush used for?

An angled wheel brush has a bent shaft that allows you to clean the back of the spokes and the inside of the rim without removing the wheel. This is precisely the area where brake dust accumulates and that a standard sponge cannot reach.

Do Rimpaca brushes scratch the rims?

The head is made of fully synthetic wool, ultra soft, and the construction contains no metal, which greatly limits the risk of scratches on rims and sensitive surfaces. Chemical Guys states they are safe on all types of rims, including aluminum and stainless steel. Rinse the brush regularly so as not to trap abrasive particles in it.

What is the difference between the two brushes in the set?

The Rimpaca set brings together two complementary sizes. The larger covers the rim well and the wheel arch, the smaller slips between tight spokes and around the calipers, both sharing the same angled head and the same synthetic wool.

Do you need a wheel brush when you already have a wheel cleaner?

Chemical and mechanical are complementary. A gel wheel cleaner dissolves brake dust, but only brushing dislodges deposits embedded in the rim channel and behind the spokes.

How to clean the inside of the rims without removing the wheels?

Turn the wheels fully to clear access, spray a wheel cleaner, then insert the angled brush into the rim well following the curve of the handle. Then rinse thoroughly before the product dries.

Can Rimpaca brushes be used anywhere other than on rims?

Yes, the angled shape also works on exhaust outlets, between grille slats and on dusty interior surfaces. They are used damp and loaded with foam, or perfectly dry for simple dusting.

Rimpaca Chemical Guys wheel brushes: reach every nook and cranny

The Rimpaca Chemical Guys brushes come as a set of two angled-head wheel brushes, designed to clean areas that a straight brush can’t reach. They are aimed at motorists who want to wash the inside of wheels, the back of spokes, and calipers without removing the wheels.

An angled head for recessed areas

The bent shaft lets you get behind the spokes, move up along the inside of the wheels, and get into exhaust tips or between grille slats. The motion stays natural, without straining the wrist.

Ultra-soft fully synthetic wool

100% synthetic wool head, flexible and dense
Metal-free construction, which limits the risk of scratches
Stated to be safe on all types of wheels, as well as on aluminum and stainless steel
Holds a large amount of thick foam and extends the cleaner’s contact time

Two complementary sizes

The set brings together two sizes. The larger one quickly covers the wheel barrel and wheel well; the smaller one slips between tight spokes, around calipers, and on high-performance brakes.

A secure grip

The handle offers a comfortable grip area that prevents the brush from slipping when hands are wet and soapy.

Dry or during washing

The Rimpaca can be used both wet, loaded with foam with a wheel cleaner, and perfectly dry to dislodge dust on the vehicle’s exterior and interior surfaces.

For what use

Daily driver, vehicle equipped with high-performance brakes, SUV, or motorcycle: as soon as a wheel has closely spaced spokes or a deep barrel, the bent shape saves time compared with a sponge. Pair the brushes with a gel wheel cleaner to loosen brake dust before brushing.

Instructions for use of Rimpaca Chemical Guys wheel brushes

Rimpaca brushes give their best result when the cleaner has already started to loosen the dirt. Here is how to integrate them into a classic wheel wash.

Cleaning a dirty rim

Rinse the wheel with clean water to remove the least adherent contamination.
Spray your wheel cleaner on the visible face, the rim barrel, and the caliper.
Let it act for the time indicated by the product manufacturer.
Run the large brush through the rim barrel and on the wheel arch.
Follow up with the small brush between the spokes, around the caliper, and on the lug nuts.
Rinse thoroughly until the foam has completely disappeared.

Treating exhaust tips and the grille

Moisten the head and load it with foam.
Insert it into the exhaust tailpipe or between the grille slats.
Make short back-and-forth movements, then rinse.

Dry dusting

Use the brush perfectly dry.
Sweep dusty surfaces, inside as well as outside the vehicle.

Precautions

Rinse the brush after each wheel so as not to carry abrasive particles from one rim to another.
Wait for the rim to cool down before washing it.
Let the head air-dry before storing it.
