That looks great. Can you go into more specifics about how you got the insides of the wheels so clean? Thanks!

Sure: With the wheels off, I start with one wheel at a time. First, I spray a liberal amount of Meguiar's Hot Rims on the wheel and let it dwell for 1 minutes. The key is to not let the Hot Rims product dry. Then I hose off/rinse the wheel in hot water. Follow that with a solution of apc + liquid soap + a soft bristle nylon brush. Scrub the wheel and rinse again with hot water.



In the summer, cold water will suffice, but everything seems to work better with hot water. With the wheels off the car, I can clean all four in approx. 10 minutes. I did a Bentley Flying Spur some time back and kept the wheels mounted using the same procedure. It was a lot more work and I had to use solution-soaked rags as well at a brush to achieve the results. Plus, I had to move the Bentley in order to clean where the calipers blocked my efforts.
