Hey guys,
I live in arizona so not a big need to wash my car all the time. I typically wash every other weekend. However, the brake dust has been a big issue to keep under control between washes. With the many recommendations from this site in mind, I picked up the aerosol version of EagleOne A2Z wheel cleaner and a wheel brush. Took me maybe 5 minutes and the wheels look perfect! The stuff works wayyyyyyyyyyy better than the other methods I've used. Highly recommended. Thanks for turning me onto this stuff!!

yeah, i agree - especially my front wheels for me.... my sponge comes out BLACK while hand washing the wheels.

i think there's already a thread on this called "fighting brake dust" or something like that which proves we're all suffering the same problem.

PHXF, I'll have to look into that. How well does it cut the grime on the inner wheel barrel?

I think Caymandive recently found a good fix for the brake dust with an aftermarket set of brake pads. Low dusting ceramics I believe. I'm waiting to get through these pads before I switch on.
