Just seen this stuff listed on the autoglym website as a new Trade Range product and was wondering whether anyone has tried it yet?

I had seen it a few weeks back and the AG rep had it available, but since I wash the car often (sometimes twice a week) I 'm not finding the need to use any other than shampoo at the moment, all that concerned me though is that wheel cleaners are either acidic or alkaline based and alloys don't like alkalii much.

Not seen that one either. Good old TFR is still working for me though.

I doubt it's neutral - more likely to be alkaline which is just as harsh on waxes/sealants as an acid cleaner, but obvioulsy it won't flash oxidise uncoated wheels.

Sounds like its still going to be pretty aggressive stuff then so ill probably give it a miss and stick with soap and water for now

This product is neither acid nor alkaline based.

It has a built in rinse agent and has a slight foaming affect.

The formula is a secret....;)

Please do tell more, do you have the data sheet for the product?
I'm concerned of the big X on the bottle, seems odd for a neutral fluid.
