what do you guys use to clean your rims...

earlier i cleaned my car after maybe 4-5 months of NOT cleaning it and my rims had all kinds of caked on brake dust on them. i managed to get most of it off but after it dried i found that i missed HELLA spots....any suggestions?

i dont use any rim cleaners just yet. i just use the soap i use to clean my car

 

Eagle One

 

Griot's Garage Wheel Cleaner. Spray on, agitate with a wheel brush and rinse.

 

water and sometimes zaino car wash

 

Todays "All wheel cleaners" are pretty safe, due to environmental standards as well as storm water pollution run-off standards. Most are completely acid free, but check each manufacturers directions. I personally use Duragloss Al Wheel Cleaner, followed by Protectall Do it all....
A good wheel brush makes all the difference in the world. I will be carrying OXO brushes in a very short time.....

 

Excel, could they use an older piece of clay?

 

yeah i was thinking about that....using an old piece of body clay that i had laying around..wasnt sure if that would do any good though

 

Mr. Clean Magic Erasers and some soapy water.

 

 

Absolutely! Wipers ever chatter? Try it on glass as well!
