Wheel cleaner
Just curious as to what everyone is using to easily clean their wheels? I have an 03 C230 and the brake dust is horrible and even more of a pain to get off, so if anyone can recommend some good products to clean the wheels and maybe a product to stop the brake dust from caking on so easily, it would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks
Ian

Several good products out there. Preferably use one that's Acid Free & PH balanced, i.e.

the ceramic pads would help reduce brake dust.

once you clean up your wheels consider putting a wheel coating on them.

03C230. I have put ceramic pads on all my cars for nearly 15 years. My experience is they eliminate carbon black dust completely--NOT "help" as Detailer's Domain says. The reason these pads eliminate dust is because they are made from ceramic materials, not carbon-based.
Many M-B owners go to ceramic pads.
With no carbon dust, you will then not need the expensive carbon/iron removal products Detailer's Domain is listing in his comments.
You need to know that.
I have hyper silver wheels on my E550. No black carbon at all. None.
Hope this helps.

I have a bunch of Griots stuff at my parents, but didn't have the time to go get it. I had an Amazon gift card and bought some of the Adams, now I'm buying all their products and they are some of the best I've ever used.
Griots is good but VERY pricey.

these products are so good for wheels care
There are many specific products to clean your wheels. I tried Ma-Fra products and they work perfectly.
Especially this one!!
They are leaders in Italy and their products are very good. If you want, you can try it.
