The brake dust takes more effort/shampoo mix/time to wash off. It's simply tougher...like it adheres to the wheels/tires more for some reason. This is a consistent issue for me, happens every time I ONR my wheels/tires between regular washes
Additional info: the wheels are all well-LSPed with various products, the tires are both dressed (Z16) and not. The ONR is mixed with di water and I've tried various strengths. I've tried different QDs (also tried using none) after the ONR washes to see if that makes a diff and it didn't.
I have different brake pads on the various vehicles in question.
FWIW, my conventional wheel/tire washing is almost always done with shampoo mix (not Wheel Cleaner) and goes *very* fast and easy, even when the wheels are utterly black with dust; it just washes off with minimal effort. I suspect that's part of why I notice a diff at all.
Don't take this as a slam against ONR or anything like that..I like being able to clean the wheels/tires without worrying about getting any overspray on the rest of the vehicle. I just wonder why it works out for me the way it does
