Why wheels get so dirty
Brake dust is made of hot metal particles that bake onto your wheels and can etch the finish if left too long.
Regular cleaning stops it building up and keeps your alloys looking sharp.
Choosing the right cleaner
Use a pH-balanced or non-acid wheel cleaner, such as Bilt Hamber Auto-Wheel.
Harsh acid cleaners can damage lacquer, painted and diamond-cut finishes.
The safe method
Clean wheels when they are cool, never straight after a drive.
Rinse, spray the cleaner, agitate with soft wheel brushes, then rinse thoroughly. Use separate buckets and tools from your paintwork.
Protect them afterwards
A wheel sealant or ceramic wheel coating makes brake dust far easier to rinse off next time.
