[DML] Re: Cleaning the wheels

William,
Once you get them clean might I suggest installing a set of Don Steger's dust
shields.

Does a GREAT job of keeping the rims clean from brake dust. Now I rarely have to
spend any extra time scrub'n the rims.

Subject: Cleaning the wheels 	
Greetings, list. I have the older dark-gray wheels. They look good when
kept perfectly clean, but look like total Hell when even slightly dirty.
Anyone else have this problem?

So far, I've been using soap & water with a toothbrush to get in between
each spoke, but that's a real pain in the rear, especially since I'm one of
those guys where everything has to be clean all the time. I have some
spray-on,
hose-off wheel cleaner, but it just isn't up to snuff (think it's made by
Black Magic... and is just called "Wheel Cleaner"). I was wondering if someone

knew of an easier way? I was thinking about pressure washing them, but that
introduces a number of risks, including striking the tire, not to mention
possibly damaging the finish on the wheels?

Could really use a miracle product / great idea right about now! Thanks in
advance!

Regards,
William F.
