Cleaning inside rim
How are you guys cleaning the inside of the rim? THe brake dust settles their, and with the rotors, its almost impossible to fit my hand in their to run a sponge on the inside of the rim. If I try to do behind the caliper, forget about it!
So what are you guys using to clean the inside of the rim? I guess this is one of those times little girly hands are great..LOL |

we have the ACE TurboStick to do just that. I never wash a wheel without them. SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much easier and faster.

I got a long round brush from Wallmart that I can stick in through the holes and wash it off. Barely fits over the brake calipers. Depending on where the wheels sit parked I might miss a spot or two. I just figure the next time the wheels will be in a different position and I'll get the spots I missed eventually.

Be careful of some of these brush's with a metal insert,you will scratch your wheels if not careful.I ordered my wheel brush's from Griots Garage,handles are plastic with a scrubber on the end.
