Brake Dust on Wheels
Hello Everyone
My wheels are really mucky, I must admit I have neglected them a little.
I have a build up of grime and brake dust which I am struggling to remove with the wheel cleaner I am using
Anyone give some ideas for shifting the dirt it would be nice to see silver again

I would suggest using Megs Wheel brightener diluted to 4:1 and give them a good wash. Then if that has not removed the stubborn brake dust, try claying them. then re wash and then put a few layers of a wheel sealant/wax, something like poorboys wheel sealant.
