That's great to hear Deegee. Not only am I thoroughly pleased that you went to such great lengths to get the product, but that you also posted your positive experience with it. I have been posting pictures of Transmate and trying to get people to try it for years now on this site and you are the only one that actually tried it that I know of.
It's a God-send when I am changing my wheels over at the end of Summer/ Winter and this stuff completely cleans the entire wheel back to brand new spec; even the inside that only received the overspray during the whole season.

I'm thrilled that you're happy and hope more people give it a try.

This is what I have used for 2 years and it is amazing. If you have caked on dust, just spray a coat, give it a couple minutes, then spray again, you will see the dust melt off each time it's coated. It can be found @ Advance autoparts

Excellent write-up. Price is less than $10 a gallon so I think I'll get this ordered today. I've been looking for something like this for awhile now. The transmate just seemed a little pricey. Thanks a bunch Deegee.

It does take a long time, 2 hours or so, but I do this once a year and my wheels are near perfect condition.

Here's what I use:

Pressure washer
Teflon brush
P21S Gel
some old rugs
Menzerna aggressive polish (for taking off any tar that won't come off)
Poorboy's wheel sealant

Well that's fine but it takes me about 1/2 hour to get all four wheels spotless for winter storage using Transmate. No I don't want a cookie.

Since switching to Hawk HPS my brake dust problems are minimal - Eagle 1 Wheel cleaner is now sufficient to get them clean.

I can't believe it but I have about 33,000 miles and I am still on my 1st set of brake pads!! I do look forward to upgrading and possibly not having to deal with the excessive dust. On the other hand, excessive dust does mean you have some good brake pads!

Never heard of P21's, local shops usually carry Meguiar's, Black's Magic, Armor All etc., might have to see if I can find some once I upgrade my brakes, stock brakes equals hella brake dust.

you can get P21S from your sponsor

I bought S100 wheel cleaner at my local Harley Davidson store, the 500ml size for a hair under $10. From what I could tell, it was the same thing as P21S gel, except I could buy it local when I wanted to and was like $5 cheaper. I was happy with it, but they don't sell a 1000ml size

In fact, all the S100 products are like $5 cheaper than their sister P21S stuff. Is S100 just made from "bad" batches of P21S, or are motorcycle guys just cheaper?

Yes the stock brake pads were very good. My stocks lasted to 42,000 miles on my 05 and they were still working pretty good.

I use the armor all wheel cleaner and it works wonders!
