How to Clean Brake Dust on Wheel Hubs?

[DeNorah]

Methods for cleaning brake dust on wheel hubs are as follows: 1. You can use a wheel hub cleaner along with a soft brush to scrub. Avoid using overly hard brushes or wire brushes to prevent scratching the rim surface. 2. Use high-pressure water to rinse off mud and dust from the tires, the exterior of the rims, and the inner side of the fenders. Wipe with a towel to remove any loose dirt. For cleaning the rims, evenly spray aluminum alloy rim cleaner on the surface, wait for 2-3 minutes, then gently scrub with a soft brush or sponge to avoid damaging the metal surface. Ensure no spots are missed between the spokes and blades of the rim. 3. When cleaning aluminum alloy rims, since their surfaces are coated with protective paint, use a neutral cleaner. Avoid alkaline cleaning solutions, corrosive solvents, fuel, or strong detergents, as these can damage the protective layer. Additionally, use soft items like sponges for gentle scrubbing to prevent harming the glossy finish of the paint. Clean one rim at a time to avoid the cleaner solidifying on the surface. Do not clean the rims when they are hot.
