Accidently sprayed some wheel cleaner on my car.

Will it be okay? I was using some spray on wax and i sat it down then i accidently picked up my wheel cleaner and sprayed 3 sprays on my door.

You're fine.

I'd wash the vehicle to be safe, and if you feel ambitious, another coat of wax/polish never hurts.

if you wiped it off, cleaned it/washed it off, and maybe even put a little wax on the door.....no harm, no foul

Just rinse the affected area with plenty of water.

I'd stay away from wheel cleaners. Regardless of what they say they are all pretty harsh and contain strong chemicals.

I only use simple green and only on COLD wheels and tires. Spray on wait one minute and wash off. I also wax my wheels every time I wash and wax my car, about once a week.
