I ave a spare set of 20 inch chrome wheels off a 2011-2013'ish F150 which I recently picked up. Haven't decided if I'll run them or flip them but either way they needed cleaning. My go-to product for medium duty wheel cleaning has been Simple Green for a long time... unfortunately despite the fact these wheels didn't look that bad the SG didn't seem to lift all the brake deposits off. Definitely the vast majority and from 10 feet they look great... but I'd like to clean them up better.
Is there another cleaner which would work significantly better? Should I use a claybar? Would a light chrome polish like turtlewax or Meg's hotwheels work well without damaging the finish?
