How to Clean Brake Dust on Wheel Hubs
1 Answers
Methods for cleaning brake dust on wheel hubs are introduced as follows: 1. You can use a wheel hub cleaner and 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 tire, the exterior of the rim, and the inner side of the fender, then wipe with a towel to remove any loose dirt. For cleaning the rim, evenly spray an aluminum alloy rim cleaner on the surface, wait for 2-3 minutes, and then use a soft brush or sponge to wipe, being careful not to damage the metal surface. Also, ensure no areas are missed between the blades and spokes of the rim. 3. When cleaning aluminum alloy rims, since their surfaces have a protective coating, use a neutral cleaner. Avoid alkaline cleaning solutions, corrosive solvents, fuel, or strong cleaners, as these can damage the protective layer. Additionally, use soft items like sponges to gently scrub to avoid damaging the glossy layer of the paint film. Clean one rim at a time to prevent the cleaner from drying on the surface. Do not clean the rim when it is at a high temperature.
