  2. Great concepts but where do actually get a wheelchair tire washer that actually works, and doesn't cost over $400?

  3. I use rubbing alcohol with a nylon brush or sponge on my power chair. The tires still look as good as new.

  4. How do I prevent hair from sticking to my wheels? The big wheels not caster wheels. I'm in a house of 3 women and 2 dogs there is a lot of hair and it sticks to my wheels making like a fur coat. Do I just need new wheels? This wasn't always an issue
