    Hi All,

    looking for a safe cleaner for Trd pro matte finish wheels . Can’t seem to get the brake dust off easily.

    P&S Brake Buster with a good microfiber wheel brush. I have a set from griots which works well. You can dilute the spray to a 1:2 or even a 1:5 and it'll work like a charm.

    edit: could also use an APC such as meguiars

    I have the same exact issue, I will never have a matte black wheel again after dealing with these. I have tried shine supply, Dr. beaslys and sonax with good scrubbing and i have had no luck still.

    This stuff will change your life. However, it is expensive and works best with a pressure washer (will work fine with hose). I buy it by the gallon.

    Do you apply it with a pressure washer?

    No, you spray it on, let it sit, then wash it off with a pressure washer or hose.

    I love this stuff. It leaves a nice finish.

    When I'm washing the 4runner, I spray simple green on the wheels and tires before I even start. The matte finish on the wheels holds in brake dust like crazy.

    A brush like this really helps
