I clean my wheels and two days later they are darker than ever. Do any of you also have this problem? And is there a good wheel cleaner out there....right now I use Meguiar's.

[quote=Triple7]If you use the brakes, you will get brake dust. The only way not to get the dust, is to get very had brakepads, but you'll find the car probably won't stop! So best thing to do is clean them regularly. The product formally called P21S, now R222 High Performance Wheel Cleaner manuf. Smartparts, is good and used often by professional valeting companies. It builds up a layer of protection over successive applications, requiring just a pressure wash to get the wheels back to clean. (Wasn't quite that way with me, but I like it.)

I came to think that there was something wrong with them, it accumulates like crazy on my front wheels, next time I am about to go out I'll take a pic, its dust but its almost a think layer of black, and it doesn't come off easily....even after the supposed "spray and wash away", wheel cleaner.

I need to start paying attention to some of these products you guys use, I am wayyyyy behind.
