My wheels are in desperate need of cleaning. I'm not talking about some quicksilver and some scrubbing either.
The previous owner before me had PFC 01's on the car, and they would COAT the wheels in brakedust after 20 minutes of driving. I have changed to the PFC Z-Frictions, which are better and dont dust very bad, but I still want to get them cleaned.
Is there any solvent that works well? Or, any service that will clean them?

It shouldn't be *too* hard to get them cleaned...just takes a little time.
- Remove wheels
- Apply Eagle One A2Z to sidewalls and wheels (inside and out)
- Let dwell for 3-5 minutes (don't let dry)
- Agitate with a brush as necessary and rinse thoroughly
- Wash with car wash soap and wash mitt
- Claybar
- Rinse and dry
- Seal wheels with something like Zaino or Klasse for protection and easier cleanup
- Dress tires with water based dressing

I have used Eagle One A2Z already. The dust is beyond dust, it is part of the wheel almost!
I've scrubbed the ever livin sheot out of them. The PFC 01's are nasty nasty pads, crazy power, crazy noise, and crazy dust!
