Then dry the wheels and coat in a good wax, this will help stop brake dust forming and make it easier to clean them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Heard that Muck-off stuff works pretty well at getting the dirt off in the first place, in general tho its the time of the year, when summer comes they will keep reasonably clean for at least a week. Nothing worse than motorway driving in the wet to completely saturate you car in crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrew7 Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Hi Guys, I've been told to NEVER use anything but soap and water. Earlier this year i was letting a hand-wash company do my car and they were using sprays etc on the wheels. Next thing i know i've got a seized caliper. Coincidence? Who knows, but whatever you spray on your wheels ends upon your discs, caliper, piston rubbers etc., and if you speak with any refurbishers they will tell you to only use soap and water.

stupra Posted March 29, 2006 Author Share Posted March 29, 2006 I think wot i'll do is take the wheels off my the car at the weekend, an give them a good clean with hot soapy water, an see how they come up. If i'm still not happy with em, i'll try somthin else. Thanks for the advise guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
