Full Description
Stjärnagloss Hjul Colour Change Alloy Wheel Cleaner – 500ml, 1L & 5L
Take the hard work out of wheel cleaning with Stjärnagloss Hjul Colour Change Alloy Wheel Cleaner, a powerful all-in-one wheel cleaner designed to tackle brake dust, iron contamination, road grime and stubborn tar spots.
Unlike a basic fallout remover, Hjul combines multiple cleaning actions in one product. Its thicker formula provides increased dwell time, while cleaning agents tackle general road grime and the colour-changing active ingredient reacts with ferrous contamination such as embedded brake dust.
Watch Hjul Get to Work
Spray Hjul onto the wheel and allow it to dwell. As the active ingredients react with iron contamination, you’ll see the characteristic colour-change reaction, showing the product working on embedded ferrous particles.
Its thicker consistency helps the cleaner remain on the surface for longer, giving it time to work before rinsing.
Why Choose Stjärnagloss Hjul?
- Powerful colour-changing alloy wheel cleaner
- Removes ferrous brake dust and iron contamination
- Cleans general road dirt and grime
- Solvent content helps soften stubborn tar spots
- Thick formula provides increased dwell time
- pH-neutral formulation
- Can also be used as an iron fallout remover on vehicle bodywork
- Suitable for maintenance cleaning and deeper wheel decontamination
- Available in 500ml, 1 litre and 5 litre
These uses are consistent with Stjärnagloss’s current product guidance.
More Than Just a Wheel Cleaner
One of Hjul’s biggest advantages is its versatility.
As well as cleaning wheels, Hjul can be used as a chemical fallout remover on exterior bodywork, helping dissolve iron deposits before further decontamination, polishing or protection.
When using it on paintwork, rinse thoroughly and take particular care around metal trim and sensitive finishes. Never allow Hjul to dry on the surface.
How to Use Stjärnagloss Hjul
Make sure the wheels are cool before application.
Spray Hjul liberally over the wheel face, spokes and barrels and allow the product to dwell while the colour-change reaction takes place.
For heavily contaminated wheels, gently agitate with a suitable wheel brush where required.
Rinse thoroughly with clean water or a pressure washer.
Do not allow the product to dry on the surface. Stjärnagloss also advises particular care with softer refinished or powder-coated wheels, which can be more susceptible to staining than OEM finishes.
Perfect for Wheel Decontamination
Hjul is particularly useful when normal wheel shampoo isn’t enough.
Brake dust contains ferrous contamination that can become embedded in wheel surfaces. Hjul chemically targets this contamination while simultaneously cleaning ordinary road grime, making it an excellent product for deep wheel cleaning and vehicle decontamination.
Complete Your Stjärnagloss Detailing Routine
Use Hjul to clean and decontaminate your wheels before moving onto Först X for exterior pre-washing, Snö for snow foam and Bubblor for your contact wash.
It’s an easy way to build a complete Stjärnagloss exterior detailing routine from wheels through to paintwork.
Which Size Should I Choose?
500ml – ideal for trying Hjul or occasional home detailing.
1 Litre – a great choice for enthusiasts who clean their wheels regularly.
5 Litre – the economical option for frequent detailing, multiple vehicles and professional detailers or valeters.
