Brake Dust??
My wheels have some drake dust marks/pitting in the corners, what I would like to no is it possible to "clay" at least some of the marks out and if so what "clay bar" would people recommend.
It's no where near bad enough to need a re-ferb of the wheels yet.
Thanks for any help

Yes, you can use clay, but before you do so please note that we would suggest the following 3 stage process for a comprehensive clean...
1. Brake dust removal using a safe wheel acid and wheel brushes/MF wash mitts; Gloss It Signature Wheel Gel is ideal, see here for details...

2. Tar spot removal using a tar & glue remover; Autosmart Tardis is ideal, see here for details...

3. Stubborn brake dust spot removal using an aggressive clay bar and suitable lubricant; Meguiar's Aggressive Detailing Clay is ideal, see here for details (and lubricant advice)...

Thanks for the advice it's greatly appreciated, looks like the weekends going to be busy .You mention "Meguiar's Aggressive Detailing Clay" I've used Meguiars shampoo's and polishes/waxes before and found them to be excellent for the enthusiast as for the Clay bar would you recommend using Meguiars Lubricant with it or some other product?
I've read many of your guides and the details you've done and can honestly say how informative and helpful they are, keep up the good work and if only I lived closer
Once again many thanks
