Being the wheels are a painted finish I would use the brush for inbetween the spokes and a micro fiber mitt on the wheel faces to mitigate scratching. I had a 2008 F150 FX2 Super Crew, the brake dust that truck generated was murder to the 20" 6 spoke GT500 style gray painted wheels I had on it. I used ph balanced cleaners (Sonax or Brown Royale) always blew them dry with a leaf blower and kept them sealed with the PB wheel sealant you mentioned you have on the way.

I'm going to do pads and rotors this summer. These pads put off brake dust like pollen!! Thanks for all the help. I will probably use the remaining Wolfgang and see if I can get better results. The directions day wet the wheel first. Could I get a better result if I didn't wet the wheel? Will the water dilute it some?
I have always used wheel cleaners straight up on a cold wheel. Actually its the first step before I wash the rest of the vehicle. My train of thought has always been that it would dilute the cleaner if the wheels was wet. It's not like they are water activated like Amazing Roll Off supposedly is.
