Quan Brown Acid-Free Tire & Wheel Cleaner
Questions about Quan products? Our in-house detailing team is standing by to help.
Description
Part of the Genius Quan Product Line, Quan Brown is a concentrated non-acid wheel and tire cleaner. It's a translucent, chocolate-brown liquid that dissolves brake dust, road grime and other tough contaminants on contact. In most cases you won't need to scrub.
Why you'll like it
- Acid-free formula for most wheel types, including factory-painted, clear-coated and chrome rims.
- Spray, wait, rinse. Let it dwell for 30–60 seconds and rinse it off. No scrubbing in most cases.
- More than wheels. It cleans tires, brightens whitewalls and cleans engine bays.
- Concentrated. Mix 1 part product with 4 parts water. A 32 oz bottle makes 160 oz of spray-ready cleaner, and a gallon makes 5 gallons.
- Sizes for every job. 32 oz, 1 gallon, 5 gallon and a 55-gallon drum for shops.
How to use
- Mix 1 part Quan Brown with 4 parts water.
- Spray it directly onto cool rims and tires.
- Let it sit for 30–60 seconds to break down dirt and grime. For heavy buildup, work it in with a soft wheel brush.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Before you use it
- Don't use it on uncoated polished aluminum or anodized wheels.
- Don't apply it to hot wheels or surfaces, and don't let it dry.
- It's strongly alkaline (pH 13–14). Wear gloves and eye protection, keep it off your skin and out of your eyes, and use it in a well-ventilated area.
- Don't mix it with other chemicals or cleaners.
- For ceramic-coated wheels, wash with Quan Purple, a ceramic shampoo made for coated vehicles.

Quan Usage Tips
Always Check Your Dilution
Quan concentrates are powerful — using RTU on a task that calls for 10:1 wastes product and can over-saturate surfaces. Keep a dilution chart on your trailer or detail cart.
Never Let Product Dry
On hot surfaces or in direct sun, Quan products can dry before you rinse. Work panel by panel and keep the surface wet during dwell time.
Use Dedicated Microfibers
Cross-contamination is the #1 cause of swirl marks. Designate separate microfibers for each Quan product type — wash, wipe, dry, and never mix them.
