Refurb. Not sure there's anything you can do?

can you get some pics up may just need a good wheel cleaner also what did you use to remove the brake dust?

 

[moag]

cartec wheel cleaner, AS tardis and an iron remover should fix it.

Wolf's Chemicals' Decon Gel will sort this.

Pressure wash, spray this on, agitate it with a soft brush then leave the product on the wheels for 30mins or so before pressure washing off.

Sorted for £10.

It's also on special offer: Wolf's Chemicals Decon Gel (Deironizer) | Non-Acidic Intensive Iron Remover

cheers for that link john just got 1l of it and some free cloths!!. i dont have a pressure washer so do i just aggitate and rinse off before it dries????

 

[John @ PB]

Should be fine to leave it to dry then hose it off. The longer you leave it (up to a point) the more effective it'll be.

If it's a bit sticky to come off, just spray a very slight mist of extra product on, agitate with a brush an then rinse immediately.

Obviously this is the better choice, but unfortunatley my girlfriend has my pockets for the time being! : i have managed to get the wheels clean and sparkly with 2hours of hard graft, brasso (awesome tar-remover) and alloy cleaner which has acid in it. How do i get the pics on here?
