Brake Dust
My lovely wife let brake dust sit on the Alloy wheels for over a month, and now it's hard enough to endure me scraping my fingernail over it without budging. What can I use to get this off without destroying the finish?
By the way, they are 05Acura TL Alloys. |

my dad had let his build up for a long time, I used meguiars all wheel cleaner and it cleaned it up pretty good

Car wash soap in a bucket, a softscrub brush, and some elbow grease. If that doesn't cut it then look for Poorboy's wheel cleaner on the internet.

Grease lightning or simple green are what I use on tough brake dust.

A long time ago, I used to use SOS pads from the kitchen. But I don't know if that is ok for the finish or not. It sure worked well though! I used it on my Mustang Pony wheels which are grey anyway (it never did any damage). I have ugly plastic wheel covers covering the steelies on my 2000 Model. And I never wash the money pit, although it does have alloys.

ORIGINAL: RTexasF NO MO! Most wheel-specific cleaners have an acid in them to eat away at the dust... they say their safe for the finish.... :-/ |
