Wheel well cleaners

Can anyone recomend a good cleaner for the plastic liners in the fender wells.

I try to clean these areas but notice the plastic turning whitish after cleaning.

use p21s, but dilute it with some water. no reason for full concentration.

maybe like a 60/40 mix, and a brush will make them look good as new.

It's a fu*#ing wheel well for God's sake! Do you also polish your exhaust system?

It's all in the details. No matter how good a car looks, nasty wheel wells take away from the overall look to some of us.

You can clean them with just about any degreaser like the P21S Total Auto Wash. To make that area look like new again I recommend the Chemical Guys Bare Bones Undercarriage Spray. Check out this awesome article on how to care for the wheel wells.

Looks like I need to add bare bones for that finished look.

Can't go wrong with P21S or 1Z W99 (Diluted) as a cheaper alternate.
