Cleaning Aluminum Wheels
I have some Mickey Thompson Beadlock Wheels and the front two get brake dust on them and when i wash my truck i cant seem to get all of it off. Whats the best way to get it off and get the wheel shining again. Someone told me to use white lightning but is an acid and im scared it will turn my wheels or make them dull. Any ideas???

I use the Turtle Wax Spray (orange color / trying the green one next) on Wheel Cleaner just before I wash the truck or before the Car Wash during the winter.
It removes all of the dust and the wheels come out looking brand new.
I always ended up after the winter car wash runs with dirty front wheels and paying and extra buck or two every time was out of the question so for 5 buck I get a bottle of the Turtle Wax Wheel Wash and get 10 or washes out of it.
Works good !

None of these will work buddy. I have some aluminum rims and the only thing that works is elbow grease. You need to use steel wool but no the course kind you use to wash dishes. What you need to get is 00 or 000 steel wool. It won't scratch your rims don't worry. Actually the mickey thompson website recommends it as well on their polished aluminum wheels. Clean them with a wheel cleaner and the steel wool. That will do the trick.
