Yea, that’s a tough spot to keep clean.
It’s hard to explain exactly what I do.
I fold my cleaning towel into a tight “V” and stick the point right into that area.
I then wipe in a circular motion around the Rim to remove the dirt.

I always keep a good coat of ZAINO on the wheels so most of the dirt just washes right off with the hose.
Then I BLAST it with my LEAF BLOWER to completely dry them off.

OK, the last time I washed my car i did apply two coats of Z2 to the wheels. I hope that it "just washes right off" If not I will try your "V" trick. Is that also how you apply the wax in there?

Thanks again!

Yes, but the small Zaino applicator fits in there a lot easier then the towel does.
It’s just as hard when it comes time to wipe it OFF though.
