Wheel cleaner
 
Does anyone know of or use a product that really cleans aluminum wheels? There has got to be something better than the typical off the shelf type stuff. Something that will help get rid of brake dust etc..

For the brake dust & grease, use some fo the aerosol brake parts cleaner. Then shine them up with Mother's Mag Wheel Polish.

I have always used mothers mag and aluminum polish. Have always had good luck with it.. Usually polished the wheels about 1-2 times a month to keep them looking good. I will continue to use mothers on my new wheels that show up in a few weeks :D :D

I agree.....Simple Green is awesome. I use it to clean wheels, engine, floormats, etc etc. Great stuff.

Whatever good cleaner you use take it off with a big pressure washer, I use a 4000psi 4 gal. per minute, brake dust doesn't have a chance plus it's easy to get to the hard to reach spot's.
