Down & Dirty –Tyre & Underbody Cleaner – Remove Browning, Grime, and Red Dirt Easily

New

One of the more sophisticated formulas in our range; this super effective and purpose-specific tyre and underbody cleaner is packed with cutting-edge cleaning surfactants and chelating agents, to easily remove tyre browning, old tyre dressings, and shift that heavier grime and red dirt build-up that any bigger outdoor adventures will throw at you. Developed and perfected over a couple of years into what we think is one of the best purpose-specific products we have created to date.

Uses the very latest surfactants and cleaning agents for deeper cleaning and renewing tyres by removing browning from anti-ozonant, old tyre shine dressings and any built-up road grime or mud.
Use before applying our Tyre Sheen or Sweet Rubber, so they last longer as well as leave a better, more even finish.
Super effective for removing stubborn red dirt, grime, mineral deposits, grease and oil from vehicle underbodies and inner guards.
Loves being paired with The Little Stiffy brush for shifting grime, mud and heavier build-up from both tyres and vehicle under bodies.
Effective at safe, deep cleaning of engine bays thanks to its grease and grime dissolving properties.
Impressively safe and non-damaging for all underbody components; rubber, plastic, and non-porous surfaces, even with longer dwell times.
Ideal to clean underbody areas before applying the Under Armer underbody protection spray for better results.
A great wheel cleaning option for 4wd's and other cars and SUV's that don't get massive amounts of brake dust.
Also our choice for wheel cleaning of high-end sports cars with carbon ceramic rotors and brakes, as it's safe for the ceramic rotors.
Removes that black soot and fresh carbon build-up around exhaust areas as well.
Non-caustic formula - we DON'T use sodium metasilicate or sodium hydroxide (like other tyre cleaners use) so it's safer for both the user (you) and won't dry out and damage rubber sidewalls with repetitive usage.
Aussie-made and developed, and importantly fully biodegradable, as we do love our great land.

Understanding the differences between Wheely Clean - Down & Dirty - Orange Agent

Better than expected & that says a lot.

After flogging my mates 920,000km PX1 Ranger from Canberra to Townsville for its 29th Sh*tbox Rally as a support vehicle, through black-mud, cow-sh*t & a pig or two... We got home and had to prep it to be floated to Perth for the next event, with the strict border check at WA we couldn't risk having any contamination on the ute. I grabbed a bottle of Down & Dirty and got to. It surprised me how quickly it started to getting to work on 8000km worth of outback dust and dried cow-pats off the wheels, inner guards, side steps and anything it was sprayed on, a quick scrub with a stiff brush and a pressure wash left it cleaner that it had been for years, for very little effort. Really surprised with how it took to the tyres and made any plastics or rubbers where red dirt tends to stain, look fresh and clean again.

Down & Dirty FTW

This is one of those rare products that exceeds expectations. Easy to use and makes plastic wheel arch trim, alloy subframes, suspension rubbers and painted chassis rails come up like new. Agitate with a brush, then hose off. Just needs to come in larger 5 litre bottles because it's so good.

Hi Rob, Thanks so much for the nice review! Down & Dirty does come in a 5L variant. On the product page, change the size variation to 5L and it will update the price accordingly :). https://www.bowdensown.com.au/down-dirty
