I'm using very cherry acid free with foam trigger. at 1:10 seems to be ok. does not foam as much as i thought but still quite impressive.

when people talk of how good very cherry is, are you referring to the acid version, or acid free, i prefer the sound of acid free tbh.

It may say acid free, but it don't say Alkaline free, which is even worse for alloys.

I too havent used bilberry so cant make a direct comparison but i have to say Verry cherry seems to shift most muck on wheels.

There is an acid free version of V. Cherry, i've been using it for a while now, & is my 'go to product' for wheels. A few customers have commented how well wheels have come up using it.

Cool, so what is the PH of it, how alkaline is the product mate?

Just get the acid free version. Then you know for sure that it's safe on your wheels.

A PH of 1 is a very strong acid, a PH of 14 is a very strong alkaline.

Both will eat through your alloys, yet one with PH 14 is acid free
