Hey all,
I can't get my stock wheels clean..
I have a 91 mazda mx-6 with what I assume is cast alloy wheels. My rims are a one year only option so I don't want to ruin them as replacing them would be difficult and expensive.
They are in very good condition except I can't get the dirt off them. Its not brake dust. Its on the entire rim, both front and back wheels. I can't get the front that clean either, the outer and inner rim. When you see the rims up close, you can see the clean spots where I was able to make some leadway.
From a distance, about a few feet away, the rims look brand new to other people, but up close you can see it. Espically me because as you know, you want your car as clean as possible and you notice every little thing.
I've tried three different wheel cleaners, including meguiars all wheels, and two different wheel brushes, nothing works.
I wax my car by hand monthly with NXT, so I don't have any buffers.
What can I do without damaging the finish of my wheels? I'm afraid to expirement. I only found one place on the internet that has my wheels, and he wants $350 each..ouch!!
Anybody else run into this problem and solved it??
thanx...
