Caked up brake dust

[ScottyB]

You are probably going to need some sort of degreaser.. although I'd recommend a water or citrus based over any of the really acidic stuff.

i use "Blast" by Greased Lightning, its a citrus degreaser i got at autozone. seems to do the job nicely, just have to let it sit a bit. i also wax my wheels once their clean, does a hell of a job of keeping the dust down and making cleanup so much easier.
