Yum Cars Wheel Foam
Wheel Foam is a dedicated alkaline wheel cleaner designed to deliver deep cleaning performance with extended foam cling and excellent lubrication.
Key Benefits
- High-Cling Foam Action: Thick foam coats wheel surfaces for extended dwell time and effective cleaning.
- Alkaline Cleaning Power: Helps break down brake dust, grease, and road grime with minimal effort.
- Foam Cannon Optimised: Designed for even dispersion and controlled product use through a foam cannon.
- Safe on All Finishes: Suitable for use on painted, coated, and alloy wheel surfaces.
- Lubricated Cleaning: Adds slip during agitation to support safer and more efficient wheel cleaning.
How to Use
- Shake Well: Ensure the product is fully mixed before adding to your foam cannon.
- Prepare Mixture: Add 200ml of Wheel Foam to the cannon and top up with 800ml of clean water.
- Pre-Rinse Wheels: Rinse wheels thoroughly with a pressure washer to remove loose dirt.
- Apply Foam: Spray evenly across wheel faces, barrels, and arches, allowing it to dwell briefly.
- Agitate & Rinse: Clean using suitable wheel brushes or mitts, then rinse thoroughly.
PRO TIP: Always clean wheels when they are cool to the touch and out of direct sunlight to maximise dwell time and prevent premature drying.
Dilution calculator
Pick your container and your ratio, and read off how much concentrate to pour.
A foam cannon does not spray its bottle. It draws from the bottle into the pressure washer's flow, so a 1 L bottle can put 11 L on the car and the ratio in the bottle tells you nothing about what reaches the paint. Measure your setup once and the number holds for every product that quotes a PIR.
Nothing matches that. Check the product's own page for its ratio.
Common questions
-
Parts water to one part product. A 10:1 mix is ten parts water and one part product, so a 1 L bottle takes 91 ml of product and 909 ml of water. A few brands print theirs the other way round, so check the label if a number looks unusually strong.
-
Water first, then the concentrate. Pouring concentrate into an empty bottle and topping it up makes it foam over the top, and you lose some of what you just measured.
-
Most diluted products keep for a few weeks in a sealed, labelled bottle out of sunlight. Write the product and the ratio on the bottle. An unlabelled trigger bottle is how the wrong chemical ends up on someone's interior.
-
Panel Impact Ratio is the concentrate as a percentage of everything leaving a foam cannon, the bottle water and the pressure washer water together. It matters for snow foam and pre-wash only, because a cannon draws from its bottle into the washer's flow rather than spraying the bottle.
-
A syringe or a measuring jug with millilitre graduations. Capfuls vary by bottle and by how full you fill them, and at 256:1 a few millilitres out is a noticeable change in strength.
