Between the snow, ice, road salt caked roads, and lack of a hose here at school, I waited longer than normal to wash my car the last time around. I haven't had the brake pad TSB done on my car, so the brake dust was pretty intense by the time I got around to washing.

When I got to the wheels, I was able to remove the heavy dust, but some of it had adhered to my wheels. I used P21S gel wheel cleaner, and a clay bar, but was still unable to remove some of the remaining black specs. It's really not noticeable, but it bothers me.

Any advice on how I can remove these light specs from my wheels?

 

Try Mr. Clean Rim Eraser. I had and have the same problem as you hehe. It did take a lot of it off however I am too lazy and dont have the whole day to sit there scrubbing when I want to get new rims any way.

 

Thanks papahoff, I'll try it out.

 

+1 to that. Said the same thing elsewhere but they didn't believe me -.-"

 

This rim eraser sold OTC in most places? Walmart, Autozone, Adv. Auto parts? Or is it something likely to have to be ordered online? I have a similar situation of some spots that just aren't coming off without something more abrasive - or "Magical" ..

 

isnt it magic eraser?? u can get it at like walmart..kmart..any supermarket.

 

Yeah, its the magic eraser designed for "wheels & tires" is what it says on the box. It was on sale at Target 2 weeks ago for $4

Also took off a bit of paint transfer on my RX that claybar couldn
t get rid of. It was like an inch long line. Wouldn't recommend doing it too much but I quickly sealed it after
