I used to detail, and I never use wheel cleaners or harsh chemicals on most wheels.
I wash wheels with car wash soap, in a seperate bucket from the regular car wash soap for the paint (wheel bucket) and apply it with a wash mit I specially use only on wheels (wheel mit). I've never used sealent on wheels, but I've use wax on wheels, or at the very least if you're in a hurry, spray on some wax-as-u-dry after you've washed them but before u dry them off.
Even friends that use the "wheel cleaners" that are safe, I'll still go over it afterwords with the car wash soap/water method above and get crap off the cleaners missed. I good hand wash like I or GR8MR2 mentioned is the way to go under most circumstances.
I've never used Meguiar's Quik Wheel Detailer either, but if they just need a touch on between washing, etc, I'll use quick detailer (I usually use the quick detailer that's the same brand as the wax, I've, at least the Meguiar's and Mother's found my wax seems to last longer if I use the same brand of detailer. There was a brand I had called Adam's though that worked great on all of it.)
