Keeping the centers clean on my vww v40's

[prine68]

I'm looking for some help....I installed my V40's and was looking for some ideas on the best way to keep the media blasted centers clean? They seem to show brake dust and stains easy.

I've talked to Eli @ Vintage about it before, and he even recommends clear coating them, or painting them to help. Otherwise, I've used a lot of soap and water when washing them, and then brake cleaner on a rag to get off any stubborn spots

Thanks Jon....never thought of the brake cleaner.

I use a citrus orange product (Home Depot) that works pretty well. Pre-rinse the wheel with water. A soft brush makes for quick work.

Mother's All Wheel spray cleaner works well, too. You'll need to do a little brushing, but it takes the black out of the texture.
