Active Colour Indicator and Application
Felgenreiniger F is supplied ready-to-use — no dilution or mixing required. Simply spray, watch, and rinse. The active colour indicator is the product's signature feature: it tells you exactly when the gel has finished encapsulating contamination, removing the guesswork from wheel cleaning.
The Colour-Change Timeline:
|
Time
|
Gel Colour
|
What's Happening
|
|
0 minutes — on application
|
Deep blue
|
The gel clings to the rim and begins encapsulating brake dust, road grime, and mineral residue on contact.
|
|
1–2 minutes
|
Blue transitioning
|
The active formula penetrates and breaks down embedded contamination without scratching or etching the surface.
|
|
3–5 minutes
|
Rich burgundy / purple
|
The colour change confirms the contaminants have been fully encapsulated — this is your visual cue: it's time to rinse.
|
Application Instructions:
1. Ensure wheels are cool to the touch before application — never apply to a hot wheel.
2. Spray Felgenreiniger F evenly across the entire rim from a short distance. The gel will cling to the surface as a deep blue layer.
3. Allow the gel to dwell for 3–5 minutes. Watch the colour shift from deep blue to rich burgundy — this is your cue that contaminants have been encapsulated.
4. For neglected wheels or stubborn corner deposits, gently agitate with a soft wheel brush or microfibre cloth once the colour change begins.
5. Rinse thoroughly with clean water using a high-pressure cleaner to reveal a flawless, brilliant finish.

Pro tip: For best results, follow up your wheel clean with Permanon PSI+14 Silver Line or Gold Line on the rims — the hydrophobic sealant repels brake dust and road grime between washes, dramatically reducing how often a deep clean like this is needed.

Note: Wear suitable gloves during use, and rinse rims thoroughly with clean water after cleaning. Do not apply to hot wheels or in direct sunlight.
