Have all four of my Fuchs alloys off the car for some brake work Decided to clean the inside of the wheels while they were off. Outsides look great. Got a lot of the brake dust/grime off the insides with Dawn detergent and a scrubby but I'm left with tons of black speckles. Anyone have a way to bring the insides of the wheels back to close to original? I didn't want to get too aggressive with the cleaners. Thanks.

Sometimes using a polish will take it out.
I keep liquid ice around for those occasions, 3m makes some good polishing compounds too... |
