    Removing dirt from wheels

    How do you remove that dirty rust like stuff from wheels. I use a wheel acid and a strong pressure washer and sometimes it's still a dirt spot that feels like rust left behind. How do I remove that?

    Iron x, spray it on and let it work. Then rinse and wash and repeat if necessary.

    If the wheels are bad you have you use more then just water pressure, you need to physically rub the wheels. I would use Meg's Wheel Brightener to start with. Make sure it won't hurt the wheels. You can't use it on bare aluminum wheels. After cleaning the wheels as best as your can with Wheel Brightener, use some ironX

    +1 for ironx. You have some bad break dust. Let the ironx work in for 5-10 minutes (out of the sun) and agitate with a good wheel brush then rinse thoroughly.
