Removing caked on brake dust?

[Jomodeere]

On the wheels of my truck, I have what seems to be black baked/caked on brake dust. I was wondering if All Purpose Cleaner could tackle the job of removing it?

 

I get my truck back from the shop sometime this week and that is going to be the first thing I tackle.

 

Thanks for the advice in advance!

Possibly, but GWC or Deep Wheel Cleaner would be best.

Deep wheel cleaner .. highly recommend great stuff for caked on brake dust.

DWC is your best bet. Any grease that may have bonded with brake dust may still remain after the DWC so hit it with APC if it does. If that doesn't work try an old piece of clay. Then hit them with some QS so you don't have to work so hard next time.

I agree!

DWC is the perfect product for this.

 

APC may get you moving in the right direction, but DWC is specifically formulated to target brake dust.

Has anyone said that DWC is the best for that job??? lol

 

APC will work, but not as well as DWC but DO NOT let it dry on the wheels. APC is better at removing petroleums and waxes, and is KILLER (that's good) on tires or rubber in general.
