what type of brushes or tools would you use on wheels like this...

pretty crazy spoke action, if you ask me. my concern is getting around each one and polishing, if necessary...not just cleaning.



i am going to be picking up an English Custom Polish kit to complement my supplies for metal polishing...just wondering what types of brushes you prefer on delicate rims and tiny spaces such as this.

High pressure warm soap and maybe that bendable meg`s spoke wheel brush

Yea I would start out with a power washer, then megs wheel brush or ez detail brush with warm soapy water and wheel cleaner. Then finish off with a soapy mf or cotton terry. Dry, then move on to polishing.
