Caked on brake dust

I know I'm still a newbie,but I'll say this anyways,"After I'd clean my rims, I tried to stay on top of it as much as possible." I'm not an expert,but I 've been fortunate to keep up on regular preventative maintenance; saved me alot of headache in the future.It's the only way I've been able to keep my wheels clean.(Alot of people would ask me,"How do I keep my rims so clean.?") I tell them I'm obsessed with maintaining a "show room " appearance and I clean my ride as much as possible. Just my 2 cents.Hope I'm not redundant.

Guilty Gear:

Spray water bottle (full of H20)

Micro fiber towels

100% cotton terry cloth towels

:D

This is the only way I've prevented build up.(I try not to stare at drivers with discolored hubcaps and wheels.)Can't help thinking about the brake dust.

( I was about to wax my hyper-black rims with Meguiar's 3rd step,but then I totalled my car.:( )
 
I use AIO on my Jeep and my Mom's car. Jeep has chrome wheels, Mom-mobile has whatever kind of polished metal Chrysler uses. I never have to use a wheel cleaner to clean my wheels. I use a partially demoted sheep skin mit (partially meaning it wasn't yet fully demoted to wheel well/under carriage) and some shampoo. Easiest for me is the Meg's Quick-Suds. I only use it for wheels, but it is strong enough for me because I stay on top of it.



Now, on my Dad's '99 Super Duty, the wheels are done. I've clayed, done multiple applications of A2Z, everything. I can do no more to save them :( The sad part is that the truck's wheels aren't even a textured surface. They're polished :nixweiss
 
Yep, treat it with respect and it'll clean anything safely.



Get a bit lax, and it can damage stuff. Just be careful and don't use too often. Use it to restore *very* dirty wheels, polish/wax them, and wash regularly with milder cleaner.
