Thanks for the comments. I couldn't be happier with the way it looks.

Carb cleaner and a rag for most of it . In some of the corners I used a green scotch brite pad. I would do about 2 or 3 letters at a time and wipe immediately. It took about a half hour to do all 4 wheels. If I had M/T's I would have ben done in 10 minutes.
