A coworker cleaned the heck out of his wife's Jeep wheels with this stuff. Man, they look sweet!

I did a search here, found Muriatic acid but didn't hear about anybody putting them on wheels. My Fuchs 2.0 alloys have discoloration...brake dust, balancing weight stickers, etc.

Is this the stuff they use to totally ruin/remove the anodization or could it possibly spiff up my wheels?
