CLD_203 uses an aggressive citrus chelating formula that attacks and emulsifies brake dust compounds without the harsh acids or caustic chemicals that can damage polished aluminum, chrome, painted, or powder-coated wheel surfaces. The Signature Series CLD_203 is one of the most recommended wheel cleaners in professional detailing because it balances cleaning power with finish safety — making it equally appropriate for the show car with billet wheels and the daily driver with factory steel rims. This 1-gallon size of CLD_203 provides outstanding value for detailing shops, car wash operations, or enthusiasts who wash their vehicles frequently. CLD_203 can be diluted with water for regular maintenance washing or used at full strength for heavy contamination removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x gallon (128 fl. oz.) bottle of CLD_203 Signature Series Wheel Cleaner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures and Benefits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrong citrus-based formula dissolves brake dust and iron contamination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafe for all wheel finishes: chrome, painted, polished, powder coat, clear coat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDilutable for regular use or full-strength for heavy contamination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-odor citrus scent compared to caustic acid-based cleaners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-gallon size delivers superior cost-per-wash value\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo harsh acids that can etch or stain wheel finishes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number (MPN)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCLD_203\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 Gallon (128 fl. oz.) 4 units Case\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormula Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCitrus-based wheel cleaner\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDilutable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSurface Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAll wheel finishes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUPC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e816276018744\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow to Use Chemical Guys CLD_203\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRinse the wheel with water to remove loose debris.
