Every month or so I spend about 4 to 5 hours cleaning off brake dust off of the rims using a paste cleaner and a couple of rags. Does anyone have any expereince using any of the " spray on hose off products "? If so, what is the name brand and are you satisfied with the results? Thanks for your input.

Glad I read your post before I responded. Exactly what I was gonna recommend.

-- lab~rat >:-) Do you want polite or do you want sincere?

Meguiar's "Hot Rims Cool Care All Wheel Cleaner" -- OK on Chrome, no good on alloys -- screwed up clear coat even when washed off within 10 seconds. For alloys, I prefer a nylon "Dobie" pad with Dawn dishwashing detergent. HTH..... Paul.

I found that this new Prestone Wheel with Brake Dust Repelent works quite well, and when I have to replace the pads on my C6 Corvette, I am not going to use GM pads again.

I switched to ceramic pads and it helped a lot.
