Concentrated wheel and tyre cleaning
Override is a high-strength concentrated alkaline cleaner developed specifically for wheels and tyres. It tackles brake dust, road film, traffic grime, tyre browning, old tyre dressings, embedded dirt and heavy wheel contamination.
Override is a dedicated wheel and tyre cleaner, not an acidic fallout-style cleaner or a maintenance shampoo. For iron contamination that needs chemical decontamination, use Dissolve as a separate step.

1:20 — Maintenance
For regular wheel and tyre cleaning and lighter dust or grime.
1:10 — Heavy cleaning / decontamination
For heavily contaminated wheels and tyres.
1:5 — Tyre stripping
For extreme mud, stubborn grime or removing old and layered tyre dressings.
