    Lug nut holes - what to use?

    So, other than qtips soaked in car soap, what do you use to clean the holes in your rims where the lug nuts are?

    I saw a wire lug nut brush at the local store. The bristles looked a little too stiff and wire like. It did not look like something you would use on your clearcoated wheels.

    Lug Nut Holes

    I make wheels. You may go crazy trying to get them perfectly clean. Lug nut holes are not usually painted very well all the way down, most of it in there is just overspray, so they will always look dark after about 1/2 " into the hole.

    if wheels are clearcoated or chrome, then seriously try the Poorboys Spray and Rinse. It works quite easily even on hard to reach areas and you dont even need a brush. DONT USE ON UNCOATED ALUMINUM WHEELS !!
