Arrow How to clean bronze wheels (volk racing)

Hi all,

I'm wondering if there are any specific methods to cleaning bronze volk wheels? There are some areas that look to have water spots on them. I just used regular car soap to wash it, but the spots are still there after drying it. Not sure what to use because i don't want to damage the wheels.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

that's what i do. slather the wheels in the peanut butter and have the animals lick it off. the oils from the peanut butter naturally bind to the brake dust.

in all seriousness, i just use a wheel cleaner (i used to use Sonax, now prefer Adam's), a wheel brush, ez detail brush, some elbow grease, and a hose. the adam's wheel cleaner is safe for the wheels. and this is coming from a volk ze40 matte gunmetal blue owner.

Get the Adam's wheel cleaner today before midnight MST. 15% off right now and the new reformulated wheel cleaner is thicker and works better.
