Velocity wipes - source?

Some time ago there was a thread discussing a new product from Velocity Wipes. It was a cleaning wipe that was a spin off of their wipes for golf clubs. Since then, I have been looking for a source to buy these wipes and have never found any. According to the Velocity Wipe web page at http://www.velocitywipes.com/ they have a product called "Frame and rim cleaner". However, a Google search has not turned up any source. I have been reluctant to try their golf club wipes on my bike because I did not know if it was chemically different in any way from the golf wipes and if it might damage the finish on my bike. I want these primarily to do lite cleaning of my bike & rim (spiff it up)...not intended to replace a good wash.
At first I also considered some of the other types of wipes available for cars but every one has conflicting info such as "safe for all auto surfaces" but also adds "not for painted surfaces". Also, the wipes using critrus orange are not suposed to be used on rubber products so that eliminates them also. (Yes...I know people do it anyway...does not mean I have to).

Has any ever tried the golf wipe version? Results? Any known source for the bike version?

PS...I have sent an email to Velocity Wipes asking if them for a source.
