Rim Cleaning

[Metric1]

The winter really took a toll on my rims! This is what soap, water and scrubbing won't remove. It's like brake dust/road gime/salt, baked onto the rims! Any tips on how to clean rims?

Stop running up the kerb :P

Nah, I can see you have scuffed them a little by hitting the kerb, perhaps when parking or w/e. I have this foam that I put on my wheels, and it goes all white, and I put just whats left on the side of the tyre on the allow, and it rubs off any dirty bits. Forget what its called though :S

They are used rims! hahahaha but I did put most of the scratches on them! My other set isn't nearly as bad!

my wheels have got lots of spokes so to save time I use the pressure washer. :P don't hold it too close to the wheel or you might damage the lacquer.
