Can you recommend a product to clean hardned on brake dudt of an aloy wheel, my car had an accident and i need to get the alloy repaired but the brake dust is thick on it and well id liek to clean it up a bit first
I'd recommend Wynn's FastAction stuff. Orange bottle. Gets rid of mud and grease easily enough... so I suppose it should manage brake dust...
I use autoglym clean wheels for mine Spray it on for a minute to soak and then wipe off. May take a few goes though Mine are multi spoke jobbies so I use a cloth with my finger or a toothbrush
If you're having the wheel repaired then it'll get sandblasted anyway so you needn't waste your time.
I'd second what Xen0phobiak says. Unless they tell you it'll cost more, just send it to them as is. If they have to repair the wheel, they'll most likely clean it anyway.
suppose you right, i think its more of a pride thing id liek to to look bit better than it is tbh, also im selling the car soon hopefully so wanting the cheapest repair (cheapest rate 75£) , so the more i do the less i have to pay them
£75?! How badly damaged is it? Usually members of a car club im in get them blasted, repaired and powdercoated for about £40-50 per rim.
