How in the heck do you guys keep the inside of the rays clean ive tried everything ??

theDreamer · 07-11-2013, 04:13 PM

Samiam · 07-11-2013, 04:17 PM

Kinda hard to do where I live. Would maybe some meguires wheel cleaner with a wheel brush heck idk the inside gets dirty quick !!!

or if you dont have many spokes you can stick your hands inside. I was able to do that with my 18" Enkei RP03's.

Had the barrels painted gloss black...

Samiam · 07-11-2013, 04:18 PM

Yeah theres enough room to get my hand back there on the stock rays but it didnt seem to clean them off still really dull brake dust on them

theDreamer · 07-11-2013, 04:20 PM

I am looking, but there are brushes you can buy that have extended arms which can get between wheel spokes easily and clean very well.
Take a look at some of the detail threads that people post and see what tools they use. Many do not take wheels off but get it all clean.

Try Brown Royal.. Works well with minimal scrubbing

Take the wheels off then wax them. Cleaning them will be much easier after this pain in the a*s procedure.

Here is your solutions.

First, used Iron X to clean your wheel.

Second, used optic coat to seal the surface.

Sonax wheel cleaner or the new adams stuff.

Microfiber towel plus wash concentrate should do the trick

There is more than enough room for you to get your hand behind the spokes or use the brush that the other poster suggested in addition to the microfiber towel
