Keeping wheels clean
What's everyone using to keep wheels clean? I've tried the armarol replant. I've clay bared and coated them with "ceramic coating" and it's like 10 miles and done. Anyone know something I don't?

Its the stock brake pads, a few threads on guys who have changed them out for other brands that don't shed so much brake dust. With the ceramic coating though, they should be easy to keep clean.

I literally clay barred my wheels and Coated them? I helped my detailer 50 days ago and nothing works? I use engine to brake to keep dust to a min. And people look at me like I'm trying to show off by down shifting, and if they only knew

I have unlimited car washes at the auto spa here so I get car washed 2-3times a week anyway but still do a lot of downshifting to keep dust at bay

a little piece of advise that will reduce the brake dust,
whenever you do a wheel wash try to take the car out for a spin before you finish or detail them. it will remove all of the water, dirt and rust of the discs. then apply your detailer products, this will help you a lot |
