Wheel help - Stain removal My LE 35th Ann. wheels have some stubborn brake dust stain on them. Was wondering what you guys would suggest to take this off without scratching the machined surface? I've tried about every wheel cleaner I can think of without breaking out the real nasty stuff that I have access to.
Also, what do you guys normally clean your black wheels with? As you can see in the pics, there are wipe marks and that was with a cleaner. I didn't put a lot of time into cleaning them the last time around though, so I'm not surprised that there are streaks and such. But these wheels are a major pain to clean sometimes and I'm always open to suggestions and recommendations.

I'm bumping this because I still haven't found a way to get that off the wheel. Don't pay attention to the other streaks on the black part, that has since been cleaned off. This was taken after a quick wipe down after I went to Road America and REALLY used the brakes.
Hey i dont know about your wheel but i have the chrome stock 16 and for really stubborn stains i use goo gone. you can pick the stuff up everywhere, autozone to pathmark. Its worth a shot and only a couple of bucks.

On my CETA wheels I use the normal car wash/water. After the wheels are dry I'll use some regular car wax on them and then hit the polished lip with some Mothers
