dkorinko Posted September 8, 2003 Report Share Posted September 8, 2003 Everyone knows that the TGP has Gold Lace wheels that are a pain in the ass to clean right??? I dont know what everyone else uses but i got a hold of some citrus cleaner and soaked them. Then I had took a rag and ran it through each and every space, it took a litle more then an hour to do all four wheels but they look so much nicer, the cleaner also shined up the chromse around the ouside of the gold. I just thought this might be useful because it does suck trying to get all that brake dust off the wheels. Does anyone else have any good cleaning methods???

Chris A Posted September 8, 2003 Report Share Posted September 8, 2003 I used to have a little bristle bottle brush I used that was mcuh faaster. Simple Green seems to work really well on brake dust too. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbtk2 Posted September 8, 2003 Report Share Posted September 8, 2003 I use a brush on the inside of each space. I am picky so it takes me a while (like 3+ hours), but much easier then doing it with a towel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
god910 Posted September 8, 2003 Report Share Posted September 8, 2003 I have A/R wheels on my Cutty and I use Meguire's hot wheels, I'm not too impressed w/ it, but I also use shitty brake pads from Adv. auto. I go as far as to take my wheels off when I clean them, makes it tons easier and you can get the back sparkling as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkorinko Posted September 8, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2003 The brush sounds like a wise idea, I wish I would have thought of that before i did all four wheels with a towel lol. Thanks for the tip though, next time around I will use it for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris ditto, I've got a spongy type bottle brush that's pretty gentle on the wheels that I use..still kinda a pain, I usually spray them w/ some diluted cleaner and then run the bottle brush through all the spaces...I've got a few ideas for the crosslaces that I wanna do later 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
